I say just let the great pool of 'Skilled Engineers' that live in New Orleans build the stuff and be grateful for the great work that will be done.
Afterwards just dont call FEMA, Bush or anyone in the Federal Govt when you get your collective asses kicked by nature again.

I wouldn't trust the alleged leaders in NO with a buck much less 77 bil.

Give him what San Francisco and Chicago got after their disasters. Nothing. If its worth living there people will build it again. If not, time to pull the life support and let it go.

"$77 Billion"
Good name for a chocolate bar.

It will be an interesting legal case. The levies that broke, if my understanding is not flawed, were not actually built by the Corps. The money went to the local government and the levies were built below the specifications of the Corps with the difference being pocketed by Brother in Law Tommie or Uncle Fred.

"The Big Easy" come, easy go. It doesn't come easy at all, and goes way too damn fast for the hard working tax payers whom Nagin and his free loading supporters seek to screw......rape, again and again and again.

Let's see... do I want my tax dollars to go to our soldiers or New Orleans? Hm... this is a hard one.. NOT.. Nagin needs to suck it up and get on with life.

77 billion! Apparently the new plan is to construct the levees out of pure gold.

Okay then where is the rest of the money LA and New Oreleans? Just like this state squandered its 9/11 money people should be held accountable for their misuse of Federal Funds but its not going to happen.

Galveston, Texas, September 8-9, 1900:
The city was reconstructed without dime-one from the government. 6,000 died.
