What do you envision for the 'new' New Orleans? What do you think it will look like?
I read an article that postulated the political scales may tip in opposite directions for the state of Texas and the city of New Orleans. The author explains that a large enough percentage of survivors that were placed in Texas may choose to live in Texas. This block of people would be Democrat-leaning.
Whereas some Republican-leaning inviduals may see a great opportunity to line not only their pockets, but also those of their cohorts with investing (i.e. buying up property, land) in New Orleans and taking it through a period of gentrification.
In your opinion, does this theory hold any weight?
