"The Failed Lesson of Katrina"
Robert Tracinski at Real Clear Politics on New Orleans, Katrina, and the failure of the welfare state.
He makes a number of hard-hitting points, and concludes: "Hurricane Katrina demonstrated that the moral difference between self-reliance and dependence on government is ultimately the difference between life and death."

Your shameless plugs are always welcome. :) Really enjoyed looking back at what you wrote in September 2005. You had a lot of insight into some of the problems in New Orleans very early on after Katrina hit. Thanks for adding your thoughts on this topic.
Best wishes, Laura
