Although we rented a car for a day for out-of-town sight-seeing, we mostly took public transportation to and from our hotel. We saw the poverty but we also saw the unique character, people, architecture... everything which made New Orleans the special place that it was. It is now changed and probably forever because we don't care about the poor folks who didn't have the insurance to rebuild their homes and lives; instead, they'll sell their lots and move out and away from the area. In their place will be the haves rather than the have-nots; as has been noted elsewhere, New Orleans has become a place where the rich - presumably Republicans - can run their southern powerbase from.

They should've just gotten in their cars (which they might not have) and driven through the flooded streets, abandoning all invalids, household pets and any belongings that couldn't fit in the car.Tom Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14647902.post-1157908482232573512006-09-10T10:14:00.000-07:002006-09-10T10:14:00.000-07:00Yep, it's all one big rezoning project that's sick...Yep, it's all one big rezoning project that's sick.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01393234934008656683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14647902.post-1157861549346718192006-09-09T21:12:00.000-07:002006-09-09T21:12:00.000-07:00well, since the government pretty much abandoned p...well, since the government pretty much abandoned people to their deaths, you "do the math" as they say.Mike V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11447125621060874022noreply@blogger.com
