To Flood or Not to Flood

I'm sure it's a very difficult decision that the Corps of Engineers had to make regarding the Mississippi River.  Do you let the river flood the large cities or do you flood the small towns and the farm grounds?  Either way somebody loses.  I'm worried that the loss of their crops will cost us more at the grocery store in the months ahead.

  1. Yes, very hard decisions to make I am glad I am not the one that has to make them, but I guess small towns and crops is better than 100 of thousands of peoples homes. I would expect if there is a significant crop loss we could see it in our grocery bills, as insurances have to get the money back some how. It will be interesting to follow how this is going.
