You can hear jackhammers pounding and buzz saws whirring on Canal Street in New Orleans. Dedicated workers endure a grinding daily commute from points north, like Baton Rouge, as they try to make the city and the region whole again.

And you can bet they are being paid to do it. In Mississippi, while we wait to see if any of our tax dollars will filter back down to us, we are busily rebuilding our own places. I have become a carpenter, plumber, floor tiler, and sheetrocker - I hate doing mudding!

Believe me that is going on here too. It's just not being reported on. Insurance companies are really screwing with people.
