No. I didn't say it was right or good. But it will happen. People are human and even those in positions of responsibility will sometimes cross their fingers and hope for the best.
Here's the other thing. Those in the government are responsible to the people they represent. Do you really think that the people of NO would have been willing to raise their taxes in order to pay for better protection from the storm and the sea? Shoot. You can't even get people to pay for local school bonds to keep their schools in repair. "People get the government they deserve."
