Leaner and Meaner, but not Cleaner

Katrina was a killer, alright.

If there is an exodus, it could mean more than just
a shrunken New Orleans. It could mean a poorer city,
financially and culturally, and a more desperate one,
too, since the people likely to leave are the most
highly educated and younger.


This sounds like media slant. The well-off areas were
not hit as hard (duh, they were on the desirable land)
and so those well-off people have less incentive to
leave. New Orleans will much more likely be better off
when all the poor go off to greener pastures
unfertilized by the shit politicians they have been
electing for the last 40 years.

In fact Nagin is most worried because it's his
(apparent--they're all bought as hell) constituency
that will be off to Houston and Chicago.
