Maybe you should tell her to move to higher ground right?
Hahaha, Mr. Boy. You don't know Louisiana. There is no high ground in a swamp.
Whose to blame for them living in a swamp? All those people living in New Orleans haven't learned that they've living in a bowl and water goes to the lowest point?
And? Your point, Mr. Con? Why haven't those people in California learned that they are living in a wildfire zone with receding shore lines and homes falling into canyons from mud slides? Why haven't those people in New England learned that they are living in an place where they have to plow snow into 15' berms every year? Why haven't those people living in Oklahoma learned that tornadoes are going to wipe out at least one town every summer?
You come to NOLA and see for yourself why people live here...the rest of the country is a dearth of culture in comparison.
I can't answer why any of them live anywhere, hence, the question. They can answer it though.
The point was that when people live in a place where weather can affect them more drastically than other places, those choosing to do so can't blame anyone but themselves when it happens.
I've been to NOLA. Many parts of it are a shit hole. As for the culture, didn't care for it much. Despite being there and seeing all the culture, it still doesn't explain why someone lives there. Only they can explain it. However, if someone chooses to live in a place like NOLA, a bowl, and the weather causes the bowl to take in water, not my problem.
