I'm going to agree with Stickman on this one. He is absolutely right about the big differences between NO and NY. First of all, you're saying people are being raped and killed in mass numbers in NY when the reality is only around 3 people a day are killed in New York City. Yes, 3 is a lot, but it was a lot more back in the 1980s. Crime has fallen a lot in New York City, and now it is one of the safest big cities in the United States to live in, if not the safest.
Also, the whole rebuilding issue. I doubt this city is going to be rebuilt. I mean, what kind of idiot is going to risk putting their business in this situation again? If I owned a Casino I know I wouldn't build it in a city 12 feet below sea level that lacks a real levee system. I don't know if you guys know this, but New Orleans got most of its profits from Casinos. I wouldn't expect to see Casinos rushing in after this hurricane showed what can happen to the city.
