Ill wind

Second only to the death and destruction brought on by the floods after the federally non-maintained levees broke is the horror of the inevitable increase in federal intervention in everything.
Eventually we will, I fear, look back on the death and destruction as, in fact, a minor part of the harm from Katrina.
When our freedoms have been totally eroded, when government and its accompanying bureaucrats and thugs have taken over even the most private aspects of our private lives, we will still mourn the dead, but in some ways we might even envy them.
