This was just waiting to happen.
So you build a city on a river delta,
pump enough water out from underneath so
that it sinks and is 13 feet BELOW sea level
(when you gotta bury people above ground
because the water table is right underneath
a warning signal should go off)
and then you come back in a build again.

If you live on a coastline anywhere in the Gulf, Southeast
Atlantic, you gotta know whats waiting. New Orleans will
have to pretend its a charming palm tree waiting for its
big leaves to get torn off, grow back, get torn off...

The storm surge was not even that bad. They had a heck
of a lot of rain, but put a 20 foot storm surge with that...
levees wont help a bit.

Buy stock in a company that makes body bags.
