I agree with Hunter 100% but i would like to add a little:
I agree that the local government did as much as they could but I don't believe they tried hard enough to get help. It wasn't like Hurricane Katrina was a shock. They knew that a hurricane was coming i just believe that they did not know the impact of it.
I agree that the state should have told the city to evacuate earlier as well. I would also like to add that there needed to be more federal intervention. The only thing that they did i believe was they sent out FEMA and a couple troops. the United States has a whole army or navy that could have helped. I just think that was a little unfair that there were not that many troops out there to help.
I think Hunter did a great job of telling the story of the governments and how they were involved with aiding the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
