I could say more about your expectations that the government will always be there to bail you out, but you're too stupid to leave a city that's below sea level when there's a hurricane approaching.


The people who were herded into the Astrodome, the people who had to deal with FEMA's ineptness, the people who are still suffering today... are mainly some of America's poorest. The ones who left were the ones who could afford to.

Now, if the city had PROPERLY BUILT floodwalls, and had a real plan in place for such a disaster, then I wouldn't feel so bad for the people of that city. However, the floodwalls were shoddy, and insufficient, and even the Army Corps commander resigned because he knew that they had built subpar installations.

Therefore, the government is responsible. I'm sure if your house was destroyed, and you found out that the situation could have been better, or even prevented if the government did its job, you'd be going after them as well.
