This state is as guilty as Florida for building in bad areas.

you cannot pick and choose.
People once thought leeches would fix ailments when applied to the human skin. We used to burn witches. We used to believe the Earth was flat. People used to think asbestos was the greatest flame resistant substance.

We have made a lot of mistakes, but learning from mistakes is the key.

Building New Orleans below sea level was a mistake. Do we repeat the same mistake simply because we did it previously? At what point does pride fuck you in the ass?
