| The most important thing to remember about the drowning of New Orleans is that it wasn't a natural disaster. It was a man-made disaster, created by lousy engineering, misplaced priorities and pork-barrel politics. The real culprit was the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which bungled the levees that formed the city's man-made defenses and ravaged the wetlands that once formed its natural defenses. | | Published On: | 6/2/2008 | | Submitted On: | 6/2/2008 7:50:06 PM by Frank K | | Categories: | Habitats & Wetlands |
