Seriously, considering the overall context, seems like a small breach.

On the other hand, its not a Category 5 hurricane.

I was talking to some people from New Orleans last year and they were quite happy with where their city was headed, saying Hurricane Katrina, for all its tragedy, had cleaned the city out of its poorest denizens, circulating them out into the rest of the country where they could exit their perpetual poverty cycle, leaving a new New Orleans that had retained its unique culture but was far more compact and invigorated. Their opinion anyway.

That's a terrible thing for those people to say. Circulating out so they exit their perpetual poverty cycle?? What a joke.
