A good piece that puts it all together with citations and everything.
One fault that I am noticing everywhere: Where is the personal responsibility? Why didn't people put their own supply of water by for the duration? Food for a few days? You know that they had to have been advised to do so.

"One fault that I am noticing everywhere: Where is the personal responsibility? Why didn't people put their own supply of water by for the duration? Food for a few days? You know that they had to have been advised to do so."

The great majority of people did exactly what they were supposed to do. 400,000 of 500,000 people left the city before the storm hit. Even among those who stayed many had generators, and weeks worth of water and food and fuel.

The problem is among those on welfare. They are not responsible enough to care for themselves under ordinary circumstances so of course it is completely unrealistic to expect them to care for themselves during a hurricane. They expected the government to rescue them.

The government is one of the most inefficient organizations on earth, as detailed in this article, so of course many of them died. Totally predictable. Instead of getting angry that so many died, the survivors should thank God that they survived. Frankly they shouldn't have.

All they know is dependence...What needs to be stopped is the mass migration to other states. The ones who are able should be forced to rebuild their city instead of sitting in stadiums. Make them useful instead of putting the burden on the rest of America.
