5. I fail to see how
building up one part of town is wrong because other parts can't be rebuilt now. The Dome and the Saints are pumping millions into the city. The Hotels and the restaurants are doing a booming business the past few days (i.e. - jobs for locals; what a novel idea.) The Dome employs hundreds and hundreds of folks (if there are activities in it.) The city relies on tourism and the Saints and the Dome fit into that plan very nicely.

Would you rather the NFL blow up the dome and move the team out of the city permanently? That would certainly help the city out wouldn't it?
