For those that didn't leave after Katrina, you are fucking fools.. that city is done now.

People actually moved back there after Katrina?

People aren't that quick to throw away history. Look at the catastrophic events in New York, San Fran, Los Angeles. Look at Florida, who gets hit with more Hurricaines than Louisiana. Take into consideration all the other places that were devastated by Katrina. Should we abandon the gulf Coast? Leave Los Angeles behind? Forget about New York, or say "I told you so" if (god forbid) anything else terrible ever happens to it?

New Orleans, in case you need a lesson of the country, is the seat of the mississippi river, and the reason that the United states is what it is today. Without control of it for shipping, we wouldn't have been able to ward off the brittish, or stop the spanish from swallowing up a HUGE portion of what is the west coast today. It's purchase doubled the size of the country, and gave a shipping route from north to south that neither the french or the brittish

Let's also take into consideration that the levee's, which were built shabbily by the Army Corps of engineers, failed. Had they been built correctly the first time, the damage would have been minimal. Had our government responded properly it would have been less of a debacle.

There are some people in life who sit in their armchairs and cheer on destruction, while others that hope for the best. It's easy to cheer on destruction when you've got no idea what you'd be losing.

The history is very interesting BUT, New Orleans and the surrounding area was sinking since before the city was founded and has sunk at least two feet since the 1970s according to more precise measurements, meaning that the entire area will have sunk about six feet in a century! At the same time the sea levels are not only slowly and steadily rising due to global warming but there are going to be more frequent and more powerful South Atlantic hurricanes occurring in the foreseeable future. The net result is that the continued habitation of New Orleans will be unsustainable in the medium term future since most of it will be under water very soon, perhaps as early as 48 hours from now! Even if the city is spared or rebuilt, it is just going to get flooded again and again over the next few decades and it would be easier to move the whole damn city than keep rebuilding it at some point.

Isn't San Francisco built on an earthquake fault line?

So when the inevitable happens, should they rebuild that city?

That's actually not entirely true, because only parts of the city are sinking, and they are sinking because the engineering of the levee's was half assed at best. The sea level of the french quarter is 5 feet above, wherein in Midcity it's 14 feet below. With the proper resources, and correction of the mistakes that the ACOF has now admitted to, New Orleans faces no imminent danger other than natural disaster.

The hurricaines and everything else are as much of a threat to any place in the gulf, as well as in the islands south of the US and large portions of the east coast resort towns.

They can rebuild there just not with my money. It is their choice to build there. Deal with what happens and do not expect others to unwillingly help. Go ahead and make a charity organization or whatever just do not expect the federal government for help.

C_U_Next_Tuesday · 09-01-2008, 06:57 AM

I would love to see some of these armchair fucknuts that are whining and bitching about all your tax money...step up and physically tell the govt what they may and may not spend your measly piddly ass portion on.

If I were some of you, I would be asking why my tax dollars are going to support a war that I dont, I would be asking why the fuck California gets saved over and over again after their many natural disasters that happen several times a year and N.O is left to deal on its own.

Fucking self righteous cunts , the lot of you.

It IS entirely true. New Orleans is sinking regardless of human activity, and it will continue to do so. The sea levels are rising and will continue to rise for the foreseeable future. Saying that New Orleans faces no imminent threat other than natural disaster is like saying that a person would probably live a long life if they don't' befall an accident or disease other than the fact that they will expire from old age someday. In the grand scheme of things, say a couple of hundred years, New Orleans will have to be abandoned unless they want to spend tens of billions of dollars in the largest engineering project in human history to protect it.

Dont try to compatr FL and NO. Just no way to do so. A Class 1 hits NO, and every thing is flooded for a week. A class 1 hits FL, and people still go to work and have parties and everthing. Andrew was a rare thing.

The last large earthquake that San Fran was in 1989 - a rather big one. I was here for it; The only thing that really happened is a section of the Bay Bridge fell. The city wasn't flooded, houses weren't destroyed, businesses weren't closed for months or years. We had an earthquake, the power went out, and the next day we all went back to work.

And here's the best part... Three years later.... It didn't happen again.

New Orleans will be the worlds first "hurricane proof" city.

Buildings will be built with high tech "shells" around them that can be closed up just before a major storm.

Trust me when i say N.O. will be the future of all coastal cities. They decided that right after Katrina, which is why they wanted a land grab IMO.

Yeah, that's an article from 2 years ago, from before they reevaluated the levee's and assessed engineering as the fault.

A person WILL probably live a long life id they don't befall an accident or get a deisease. That didn't even make any sense.

I lived there for 5 years, had multiple business there and visit many times a year. It's going to take more than an outdated opinion on national geographic to change my mind about it.

By the way, if you read the article you sent me, it SUPPORTS what I said:

"But many areas, including some of the levees designed to hold back the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, sank at four or five times that rate."

The levee's sink, more water comes in, the city sinks. Fix the levee's that were never built right: "What we found is that some of the levee failures in New Orleans were [in] places where subsidence was highest," and the city has a much better future.
