I guess I'll have to trow my two cents in.

The Army Corps. of Engineers wanted 100 billion dollars to make the levi's Cat 5 ready.

Their budget huge to begin with, in a time of every buck counts, I dont see them shelling out all that money.

More or less the only people not to have left where the ones that had nowhere to go or no way to get there. The poor.

To me it boiled down pretty fast, the ones that could aford insurance would be paid, the ones that couldnt but smart enough to get together will get something in a form of relief(maybe), and the rest , well, seems they get shafted.

They are already displaced as far as San Antonio, and probably even further west. These people had no money to get there, have no money to get back, and no posseions.

These people havent been releived I fear, they have been dumped.

They have already said it will be years before the city can be lived in again, by then, these people will have found a way to survive where they ended up.

After years, why then rebuild?

Who is going to live there?

Who would move back after setting up a life for years somewhere else?

New Orleans is lost, the releif didnt come because they want to drive every last person out of that city. They did the same thing in Bagdad it the way they didnt assist the iraqi citizens, when they killed their power and water supplies. They wanted those people out of that city as well didnt they?

I am not saying this is any thing but Mother Nature, but you cannot control a river like the Missisipi, New Orleans is built on a delta, it was only a matter of time before this happened.

They just want every one to get the idea not to come back.

They are already saying how they will have the city back, but it doesnt make sense. Not to mention that pesky budget for the Army Corp of Engineers needed to be redirected.

Peace.

It's Day 5 of Hurricane Katrina and thousands remain stranded in New Orleans and need to be airlifted. Where on earth could you have misplaced all our military choppers? Do you need help finding them? I once lost my car in a Sears parking lot. Man, was that a drag. Also, any idea where all our national guard soldiers are? We could really use them right now for the type of thing they signed up to do like Rating: 5
