 People trusted the security of the levee system. More than 100,000 people lost everything. The government's at fault, and they should step up to the plate to give people some semblance of dignity.

 The bottom line I got out of this is that unless you were a lobbyist, they did not want you to participate.

 Their response to me was: 'Americans don't live in tents,' and that was about it.

 They should have been monitoring this and informed people all the way to the top, then they should have warned people.

 This has the potential to be as disastrous as the Asian tsunami. Tens of thousands of people could lose their lives. We could witness the total destruction of New Orleans as we know it.

 This is fairly typical of some of the failures we've seen. These walls underwent catastrophic structural failure.

 This is just a few Band-Aids, really. We really need to go the step further and start implementing projects now that would make New Orleans safe.

 This is what we've been saying is going to happen for years.

 This was a bill put together by lobbyists without any involvement from scientists from Louisiana who know the situation.

 We agree that every single foot of the I-walls is suspect. When asked, we have constantly urged anyone returning to New Orleans to exercise caution, because the system now in place could fail in a Category 2 storm. It has already failed during a fast-moving Category 3 storm that missed New Orleans by 30 miles.

 We need to recognize we may be about to experience our equivalent of the Asian tsunami, in terms of the damage and the numbers of people that can be killed.

 We would really encourage people not to come back [to New Orleans] for at least a week.

 We're doing repairs on the breaches, but there are many, many, many miles of levee that we don't have any idea of.

 We're talking about an incredible environmental disaster.

 We're talking about in essence having _ in the continental United States _ having a refugee camp of a million people.
