I'm sure this man echos the sentiments of the majority of New Orleans residents. America's best civil engineers need to help New Orleans figure out this flooding issue very soon.
Since US engineers are too inept to remedy the flood risk perhaps the USAshould import Dutch engineers. Obviously they've been able to keep and evenreclaim land from the ocean. Since they've been doing this for centuries,I guess they're more capable to deal with flood conditions.
🤨New Orleans never heard of the word "Tornado", until after Katrina.Its unsettling to only focus on tourism and not city and housing development. The corruption has been for generations and the residents suffer because of it. And why wasnt the Morganza Spillway used to get some of the water out? A lot of New Orleans residents cannot even afford to live in their city. Damn shame.
The corruption so dam bad...its no reason that city should not be better equipped to handle this reoccurrence problem. That city has major capital no reason to be like that even on a drizzle rain it floods. This jus sad
Everybody they interview from the area says the same thang "its worse than before" what did these govt officials do with the FEMA money to upgrade there broken system....hmmmm
It's time to stop denying that waters are rising....and apply the engineering skills needed to save coastal cities. Where is the $? This extended interview was good...not just a soundbite...to inform us what it's like to live with infrastructure fail all the time.
Michael you really know what you're talkin about you need to go and make things happen they need someone like you on the team yeah blessing and prayersI'll get you something to eat and something to drink 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is a recurring problem, & should have been address a long time ago. What happened to the funds that were allocated for the drainage system? This water was not from the storm, just rain.
That gentle men is absolutely right about after "Katrina " went through it's like this is happening on a regular basis man made storms and floods along with tornadoes...
The French Quarter, which is what New Orleans was originally built around, is above sea level. New Oreans has long been a significant port city and vital to the south east. Do some research.
More accurately, what do you expect when you have a state with such out of control corruption. Amsterdam is also below sea level, no flooding. We need to throw all corrupt politicians in jail and force the large oil industry to pay for coastal restoration and flood protection since it's estimated that those companies caused as much as 90 percent of the damage.
@@aundrayperkins9796 You are correct, southern Louisiana is not meant for long term residence. The Native Americans living there knew this, as they would stay in the fall and winter and leave for the spring and summer. Too hot, and more importantly, too flood prone. However, they did recognize the regions importance as one of the richest parts of the world because of the fertility of the land and the huge abundance of natural resources. When the french came to build their city, they were warned not to build any sort of permanent structure there, let alone a city, but they did anyway because of the huge value in terms of natural resources, ports, river control (rivers were so important back then that controlling the Mississippi River meant controlling the interior of North America and in turn would also grant them the ability to prevent a nearby country from expanding to close to, or on to the other bank of the river). It's control on the river was so important that it caused a large part of the growth in Chicago and New York City. When Chicago was built, a canal was built linking Lake Erie to the Illinois River, and in turn the Mississippi River, which eventually led to New Orleans. Also New York grew a significant amount after the Erie Canal was built, which connected it to New Orleans. In the present day, while there should be no long term residence, there are so many huge ports and corporations operating in souther Louisiana that moving out would end up costing significantly more money than spending billions of dollars on restoring the coast and implementing flood defense systems.
They want give tickets but dont want to fix the pumps i hate new orleans i cant wait to move to another state they dont even want to pay the right money on jobs people still making 7.25 are 5.25 an hour smh this is not my city no more😐😔
@Marco Polo i know i want to move but the jobs sucks its like quick sand down here everything going up but the pay and if you dont know nobody you is not getting a good job people put their family on before a person who really needs a job and next thing you know the job is filled up smh the oil plants people are dying and getting sick its so mess up down here
wow beautifully natural floody in new orleans... big thank to the cloudy pour heavy thick rainy rainy on the great floody... keep continue more rainy rainy again and flood soon allday - allnight - everyday - everynight... many animals / plants needs that water
Dam man i feel bad for our city we got so many obstacles against us that keeps hitting us from every angle but our people our New Orleans natives are STRONG and RESILIENT people we always overcome adversity but sometimes it gets tiresome we continue to get failed by the our own local government its been Lonnnnnnnnnnng overdue for CHANGE the future of our city is at stake
Got stupid a ticket for driving fast through flood water you go fast to avoid getting stuck are they going to tow you out for free when you get stuck know they will not that's stupid it already flooded their buildings and businesses already have water damage a little bit more water ain't going to kill them

getitwright2012 That’s why I moved out of the city to the suburbs, it’s high and dry outside my door.
New Orleans is literally underwater what do you expect
Very true. Why aren't the pumps constantly working during a storm.
Wow he told some facts... Now let’s see what happens... Prayers from Texas 🙏🏾❤️
Everybody they interview from the area says the same thang "its worse than before" what did these govt officials do with the FEMA money to upgrade there broken system....hmmmm
Put it in their pockets
paid their car payments and boat rentals.
bought shipping containers of drugs...
Good for this guy for saying what's the truth! Great reporting!

Michael should be the new Mayor! Stuff would finally get done in New Orleans. 💪🏼
I think the American ppl need transparency when it comes to tax money, because of situations like this we need to hold certain ppl accountable
Michael you really know what you're talkin about you need to go and make things happen they need someone like you on the team yeah blessing and prayersI'll get you something to eat and something to drink 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Right, venice with dirty swamp water.
Drain the swamp!!!
Smart man.

NO what is funny is building a city BELOW SEA LEVEL! 1:31
The French Quarter, which is what New Orleans was originally built around, is above sea level. New Oreans has long been a significant port city and vital to the south east. Do some research.
No looters in Venice.
what do expect when you have a city below sea level.

move. it's not meant for long term residence.
stxhunter1 the city is a damn swamp like swamps flood duh lol

This is sad..
I think it looks like Cuba!
It’s what you get when you build a city 7ft below sea level…at…sea level. You get what you have coming to you.
Move and stay out when God bless you to get out of Egypt
keep the commandments these are the last days....get ready for worse
I would suggest the residents NOT CONTINUE to support their crooks stealing the city maintenance money.
Is she squatting? Seems like the water comes up deeper than the cars and trucks?
They want give tickets but dont want to fix the pumps i hate new orleans i cant wait to move to another state they dont even want to pay the right money on jobs people still making 7.25 are 5.25 an hour smh this is not my city no more😐😔
I hear you baby , Trust God

You know their pockets get fat and we suffer! We need to take it to their neighborhoods, see how they like it!!
Don't worry our 🙏 are being heard.
Maybe they didn't take down enough statues!
Dont think drivers are doing it purposely.
Why dont people move ! We moved out A floodzone area. Its logical. If decide ride it out you provide your own needs go stock up.
Everybody can't afford to leave
They need to move the entire city!
It appears that New Orleans has sunken,therefore it will be worst for the state.. So sorry to see be safe 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼4 you’ll
They kept the money and spent it own their family.
Possibly levels can reach 2nd floor by the time Barry hits.
It has sunk.move
Ok
woww....
wow beautifully natural floody in new orleans...
big thank to the cloudy pour heavy thick rainy rainy on the great floody...
keep continue more rainy rainy again and flood soon allday - allnight - everyday - everynight...
many animals / plants needs that water
This man said, "As much money as flows thru New Orleans and we can't fix this problem?"
The Sewerage & Water Board of New Orleans is the problem!
I used to live around this area!
Hopefully I can get me a margarita or something lmao I love this guy
Rip my home 1999-2005
Dam man i feel bad for our city we got so many obstacles against us that keeps hitting us from every angle but our people our New Orleans natives are STRONG and RESILIENT people we always overcome adversity but sometimes it gets tiresome we continue to get failed by the our own local government its been Lonnnnnnnnnnng overdue for CHANGE the future of our city is at stake
Fix the damn pumps Orleans Parish...
Live in Jefferson Parish!
Venice new orleans, 😱
Duh...what do you think is going to happen when a city is built 8 ft below sea level on top of a swamp on the coast????? It's only going to get worse.
I believe they are up to something they want that land I wouldn't be surprise they want to build expensive beach homes just for the rich
Geoengineering. The same thing they did with the California fires last year. Land grab!
Bring out the gondola and start working..
Lol venice doesnt look like a slum
Checkouts something called the Brown ocean†*********†*****************
Ticket for just driving through
🤔🏌🏿♂️🤔🏌🏿♂️why he start like that🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Katrina changed everything
Hes right
People are so dumb!!!!
These people have been worned weeks and months ahead of time.
People not dumb. Leaders of the city are incompetent and stupid.
The wrath of God is coming,this is just the beginning. Repent people and belive the gospel before it's too late.
This area rarely ever flooded
This isbs not to.help them. Its bs
Looks to me It’s sinking. That’s why. Flooding not much rain. . Time to move out to higher ground. God bless
Should have left during Katrina
Instead of turn around dont drown it should be dont care pay the fare
Got stupid a ticket for driving fast through flood water you go fast to avoid getting stuck are they going to tow you out for free when you get stuck know they will not that's stupid it already flooded their buildings and businesses already have water damage a little bit more water ain't going to kill them
Just Drizzle...
They want the land honey
Get out it's a warning sign
Move.
It looks like it’s time to let the Mississippi River go to the Atchafalia and abandon this city as the first casualty of climate change.
Hi makasih
Ridiculous ok. How about disaster.
غارق الشوارعة ههههههههه
