"Reasonable" engineering created the problem.  The corpse should never have 
built the levees in that style in the first place.  A better style was 
available, but it cost more.

My point is that there will be severe economic consequences for abandoning 
Placquemines Parish as it is now.  3 billion is a bargain compared to what it 
would cost to move the infrastructure and businesses out of the parish and keep 
the petroleum and seafood industries going and viable.  Plus the spike in gas 
prices associated with doing nothing would possibly trigger a recession.
