I agree with everything that has been stated. We mid-westerners DO take care of ourselves AND each other, BUT there is also considerable speculation that just maybe the Army Corps of Engineers (government) COULD have handled the situation differently, and if they had, the flooding would have been minimalized, or maybe even not happened at all. As it is, thousands and thousands of acres of farm ground from South Dakota to Kansas city, Missouri and beyond are now under water and will not produce a crop this year, and maybe not for several more years. Highways (I-29) are also under water, and WILL need extensive repair after the waters recede and BEFORE the highway can be opened to traffic once again, which could take several years and several billions of dollars. Many farmers have totally lost their livelihoods, as well as many other previously thriving businesses that have been forced to close because of the flooding. It is a sad state of affairs to realize that just ONE government entity can cause so much utter devastation.
