Why would anyone build a city 7 feet under sea level? Why would anyone want to live in a flood zone? <br /> <br />No electricity, no water, no homes, no stores, no workplaces, no nothing.....Thats New Orleans today.... <br /> <br />I live in Dallas and already we have had people from the New Orleans area drop by our place of work asking for application forms... <br /> <br />Why are there still people in New Orleans....didn't they get the word New Orleans was supposed to be evacuated, and after the storm didn't they get the word the city is closed? <br /> <br />So many need to work today to pay their upcoming hotel bills, and are searching for apartments in the Dallas area already. Most of them don't think their jobs will be there if they do rebuild New Orleans in a week, which they won't.... <br /> <br />Literally, we have over a million refugees going from city to city looking for a new job....and home....and car...... <br /> <br />Comparing New Orleans to Venice. In Venice they are raising the height of their city from 1 feet below sea level to 3 feet above.... <br /> <br />Anyone in the New Orleans or Louisiana government should be thinking in the same term with New Orleans. If we the American people and government is going to spend billions upon billions rebuilding their fine city, we should rebuild it 3 feet above sea level.... <br /> <br />
