Kelman Article: New Orleans

In the article that Kelman wrote he discusses why he doesn't think that New Orleans should be rebuilt. The thing that makes the article so convincing is that he is sure to back up his reason's with why he doesn't think it should be rebuilt. He discusses how it is just not a safe place to live, even if they built it back up again, it would still not be safe. They thought it was safe from the beginning and it still happened so who is to say that it will not happen again? He is just saying that in reality it is not worth the risk of going through all that devastation again.
