I don't really know what you expected them to do, aside from making the levies stronger. Their plan for saving people from a hurricane was to tell everybody that there's a hurricane coming so they could get out of town. If the people don't decide to leave, they kind of have to expect to be on their own in the event of extreme damage. And it's not like New Orleans is the only place effected, if all the roads and towns and everything in the whole state around it weren't hit by a hurricane I'm sure there would be a lot more help. Also, we haven't had much experience with stopping crimes taking place in the middle of a lake, there aren't normally many good things to steal there.
