Why in Gods name did'nt the authorities (and they knew that this was going to happen) organise the mass evacuation of those citizens who were unable to get out of New Orleans?
Surely they could have ferried these people out of the city... in buses... days before the hurricane hit? Saving the lives of thousands!!
If it was down to the matter of economics and logistics, then would'nt it have been cheaper and easier than airlifting the survivors out by helicopter, in what now looks like a massive military operation?
