Sounds like New Orleans; no?
Thanks for the ping, Travis.
I believe they are trying to move the folks out of the way of the damaged dams, but it looks like a herculean task. Right now they don't even have enough temp housing or tents for all the folks they've gotten to, and it seems there are a lot they haven't reached yet with other than teams on foot with whatever they can carry. I've also noticed that the CCP organs are back to culling their folks comments -- didn't think it would last long, but surprised that it happened at all.
No, New Orleans was giving tens of millions of dollars to a local levy board which used the funds to build interstate exits for casinos and multiple other local projects that didn't have anything to do with why the money was allocated.
