Our FEMA director at the time's only qualification as far as management goes...was he ran horse shows. We screwed the pooch with Katrina, we could do a thousand times better if we put effort into it.

What sort of notice did you get before she hit. enough? how many people lost there lives?
about 1,800 people died, and over 180 billion dollars in damage they were also well notified this shit was gunna happen ,
The hurricane surge protection failures in New Orleans are considered the worst civil engineering disaster in U.S. history[SUP][5][/SUP] and prompted a lawsuit against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the designers and builders of the levee system as mandated by the Flood Control Act of 1965. Responsibility for the failures and flooding was laid squarely on the Army Corps in January 2008 by Judge Stanwood Duval, U.S. District Court,[SUP][6][/SUP] but the federal agency could not be held financially liable due to sovereign immunity in the Flood Control Act of 1928

We knew it was coming, we knew it was big, we knew it was gonna be bad. Our Government likes to sit on it's thumbs a lot, if you didn't notice. But now, find us a country with oil and we'll have thousands of troops there in a matter of days.
actually , usa executes more people a year than NK (fun fact of the day ? haha ), not saying of course that NK is a good place to live, but goes to show you , even though USA is largly advanced in many places they do lack a lot in terms of anything either than their military. oh and cheap junk food
there is no more "living the american dream" or house wife with 2.5 kids and a white picket fence and a roast beef waiting for when you get home. its all terror and fear, god forbid you turn on the friggin news there , scariest shit ive ever seen .....
"could your child be in danger of this because were killing them"
"this country is threatening to blow us up
"were under nuclear attack"
"were all gunna die"
"x amount of people shot, stabbed, raped, killed, ect"
ect ..LOL

at, below, same thing at times it would appear. even with adequate levies it's a silly idea to build a major city at or below sea level as we will see in the future.
