*sigh*
This precise topic, the NOLA refugees becoming the "American Palestinians" was the main topic for my meditation this morning.
I had hoped that it was an extreme thought, not likely to happen, but you painted a portrait of the immediate future rather similar to mine...
One of the things you brushed against was the difficulty these people will have at re-establishing identity.
Their birth records are floating in the Gulf of Mexico right now. If they lost their ID, they've got no where to get it back.
