The right to work for less: Louisiana Last in Income

Louisiana is the poorest state in the nation, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita inflicted serious economic impact upon Louisiana, causing the state's per capita income to fall by 9.1 percent in 2005. The average income of a Louisiana resident is currently $24,830.  Ned Randolph, The Advocate  03/30/2006   Read Article: The Advocate
