Levees prevent silt from the Mississippi from spreading across the delta. Instead, it all just gets dumped off a cliff into the gulf. Or something like that. This page seems to sum it up pretty well.
Bayou Farewell: The Rich Life and Tragic Death of Louisiana's Cajun Coast is a beautifully depressing book and at 15 years old, likely contains dated optimism. Still worth a read.
Look up the book Bayou Farewell.

I do agree that government can kill off minorities, such as my cajun heritage has been stunted by the Compulsory Education Act which did not recgonize cajun french as a language and beating children who spoke it. Government is a powerful thing and can hurt as many as it helps. While I get this could be seen as not precisely the same, but it does show that there is a darker side to the government telling everyone what to do. I see now that my views are a bit too odd for people on this thread, and thats fine. I just am not swayed by this thought process
