Houston could get hit hard too, but not have the same type of flooding problems as NO. And, there's so many oil companies in Houston, it's easier to find employees experienced in the oil industry.
Not saying it's C. Ray's fault. i wouldn't imbue him with the power to drive business away singlehandedly just because of the things he says. oh. wait.
What i'm referring to is the needlessly flip attitude he had towards businesses which warned that they would need to depart the area if something wasn't done to house and insure and school and doctor their employees. To this, C. Ray uttered some foolishness to the effect of, "Well I'll send em a postcard."
With two hospitals operating of eleven pre-storm, insurance rates poised to skyrocket if nobody in Baton Rouge or Washington stops them, and C. Ray badmouthing "evil landlords", i'm less than enthusiastic up here in DC Work Camp.
Good riddance, IMO. Murphy tried to screw a lot of people in St Bernard Parish. Of course them moving their headquarters doesn't help, and I am sure theat a lot of good people will lose their jobs, but I severely dislike Murphy Oil.
