By all accounts, Daily Kingfish is badly out of touch

Geeze:
By all accounts, his reign as Mayor of New Orleans has been spectacularly successful. If you’ve visited the city recently like we have, you’ll note it is alight with improvements.
As we've attempted to document at several turns here, Mitch is deliberately selling New Orleans out to tourism magnates, developers, and gentrifiiers.  Everyone's rent is up. Water bills are up. Entergy bills are about to go up.

Anyone who complains is told by the Mayor that their problem is they just don't want to "make sacrifices."
And sacrifice... this is what sacrifice means, you know we hear it like it's a very good thing. Sacrifice means waiting in line longer. Sacrifice means paying more. Sacrifice means working harder. And it, by nature, hurts. And it's something that we don't want to do. And sometimes I think we here don't understand that that's part of really getting good
Meanwhile, the citizens continue to clamor for a constitutionally sound police force that maybe doesn't randomly beat them senseless.

 But the mayor has decided that might call for too much sacrifice.
