Again. The levees are owned by the Federal government, not the State.
Again, who cares? It was up to the State of Louisiana to take care of New
Orleans. More importantly, it was up to New Orleans to take care of New
Orleans. Whether that meant paying for the improvements themselves, or
applying political pressure to the Army Corps of Engineers, Congress, or
Santa Claus, it should have been done BY THEM. I'm really, REALLY tired of
New Orleans politicians pointing the finger of blame everywhere except at
their own chests.
