I've been seeing on news reports how New Orleans may still be planning on having the Mardi Gras take place next year. Would that be too soon? I'm kind of split on whether this should happen. There may be many residents who will still be suffering, financially as well as emotionally. They may still be rebuilding their homes and their families. It would be like we're saying, "So what you've lost everything, the rest of us still want to party". But then again, the logic in it is that New Orleans will need this revenue to get back on their feet. So maybe it would be the best thing to happen?
