Re:
Hmmmm.....The populations of Southern Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana outside of N.O. proper, seemed to focus on their own needs and got the job done.....that's because they were a population of doers and providers....not takers. The progressive attitudes of keeping New Orleans black citizens dependent on the government for their way of life is the culprit .....why wouldn't they sit and wait for someone to come and take care of them? It's been infused into them for generations...couple that with a totally inneffective Mayor and Governor and the recipe for disaster was perfected.
BTW.....you must be thinking of the suburbs of Nashville........you'll find on the north side of the river, the west side of the Capitol, and east side of interstate 24 areas that are just as impoverished as sections of New Orleans. Where were you last week?

CD, where were you on the 3rd & 4th of May 2009? Of course being different from N.O. is natural, theywere a population of majority poverty; Nashville is a population of upper middleclass demographics. Anyways I hope they can get back on their feet.
