I agree.
But even if they rebuild, I think tourism is gone.
How will NO survive? {shrug}
Why should they rebuild?
It's not as if there was minor damage--places that could be repaired.
The place is gone and I see no logic in rebuilding on a disaster site.
Build a tourist mecca like the French Quarter a little further back, maybe, but a town?
Why? Build a new Nawleens further inland and hope it turns out better than the old one.
Why spend huge funds on a levee when the town is gone?
I know there's a sentimental thing going, but sometimes one just has to be sensible.
The French Quarter is alive and well and already had a Decadence Day Parade.
Nah. We Americans are sentimental fools. New Orleans will be rebuilt on our dime. Tourism will recover. People will secretly thrill to going to a place percieved as so dangerous. I am my family won't be going, however.
