But on a serious note - there is something peculiar that happened in either Cedar Rapids or Des Moines (cannot remember off-hand now, which one). What happened was that the part of a levee that was meant to protect a lower class/working class area of the town broke through.

The possibility of class discrimination comes from the fact that several years ago, the state government had known that this part of the levee was at risk of breaking in a serious flood, but the funds to strengthen it never came through. Now, my opinion is uncertain at this point; I don't know if this neglect really was due to class discrimination or if the funds never came through for other reasons.
