NOT OPENING SCHOOLS. -they need to check them out, make sure they are safe to be reopened, how many schools in new orleans are there?? it will take time!!!! they are doing a million things at once, the safety of these children is the first priority so they need to make sure these schools are 100% safe for these children. CURFEWS -what areas are you talking about? BUILDING PERMITS -like i said before, this is the same like in california florida where national disasters happen. their first priority is the safety of the people in safe buildings. if you dont like the high price, GO COMPLAIN, BUT NOT IN HERE!! TOURISTS -LOL, new orleans was under water a few months ago!!! what is open right now in new orleans? tell me. i want you to come up with an idea to bring back tourists to new orleans.
