Rebuild New Orleans?

[hardcorecubfan]

As a native of Louisiana and living only 60 miles to the west of New Orleans, I find the mere mention of the thought to be an incredible affront. I can't say more beyond that right now, because I need time to digest all that's been said in this thread before commenting further. Excuse me but this is an incredibly touchy subject. In short though: IT MUST BE RESTORED!!! And contrary to what most think, not all of New Orleans is a total loss. The city will not have to be entirely rebuilt.

 

would you be a nice compromise if it was rebuilt with the assurance from the locals that if it floods again the Fed. government is not remotely responsible for the cost of the repair?

the feds just can't say that. People wouldn't stand for that suffering no matter how air-tight a "if you mve back heere and get hurricaned to death, we're not helping you" a contract got signed. It's a less likely scenario than how to manage dental care if magical fairies who distributed infinite amounts of hard candy popped up all over the ccountry.

 

 

Bellevance, Missouri was told that the fed. would not insure them after the 92 floods of the Missippi, but the Fed would help them move the entire town 4 miles away from the original location
