We must rebuild it- because this is America- and its a challenge, not that we havent shrunk from challenges before, but we need to do this, much for the same reasons that we needed to go to the moon, and that rome insisted on building obscenely expensive roads- some may think that this idea borders on hubris, but supposedly, the US is the most powerfull nation in the world (and for that matter in the history of the world) and how we respond to something like this is a measure of how well we wield that power- Here there is a chance to advance city planning, and produce a feat of engineering that will stand out in history- how often do you get the chance to rebuild a city from the ground up, anyway (especially when that city is vital to the economy) Overall I have to ding GW bush for not stepping up to the plate (when does he though?) and eloquently moving the situation along instead of his usual too little too late
