On this second anniversary (yesterday, actually) of Hurricane Katrina's devastation of New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Larry Kudlow has written a fantastic piece about the federal boondoggle that is "reconstruction" of New Orleans following the disaster. It never ceases to amaze me that despite failure after failure of the federal government, not only do people keep relying on Big Brother but they keep being surprised when they're disappointed by the results.
