The article at least gets right the phenomenon of grotesque violence and social disintegration totally at odds with the reactions of most people to a natural disaster. How to explain? How to explain people shooting at their rescuers? How to explain such a completely depraved environment? The social fabric is falling apart. This problem is much larger, has far more implications and is far more important to solve than a hurricane, or FEMA's deficiencies or the civil engineering of the levies. But no one wants to discuss it -- the common discourse cannot even entertain it.
