Public Financial decisions shouldn’t be made for emotional reasons.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about. Do you not agree that New Orleans brings in international tourists that contribute to the U.S. economy due to its very unique history and culture?
But beyond that, it’s still a huge port city at the mouth of the biggest and most financially impactful river in the U.S. Do you not think the federal government has an interest in maintaining it as a functional city?

I’m saying a large contingent of federal tax payers don’t give two shits about New Orleans culture and therefore federal policy makers shouldn’t either.
They should however care that the major port of the MS River is maintained
