New Orleans and environs, destroyed by Katrina and bad government is now being invaded by modern "carpetbaggers." Carpetbaggers are opportunists, and the modern ones don't need the bulky bags of old. Whatever they need they can hold in their "palm."
This article in the New York Times tells of those planning the reconstruction.
Who knows what will finally be built, but one thing for sure:
it'll be too expensive for many of its former residents.
