I'm not so sure I need to say anything more after this.

Lets see some have already pointed out what is wrong with the article and what they believe is correct.

It seems to me however that the author of the article left out certain aspects of the culture of New Orleans and that the level of corruption of the police and city governmental office has left a severe problem on the city streets.

To much wanting to blame the poor who remained in the city - verus focusing on the failures of all levels of government in planning, preparring and executing emergancy response plans.

Did the welfare state mentallity have a part to play in the looting - my belief is that it did. However that is just a minor part of the tragedity that is New Orleans after Katrina.
