Should we move all the folks out of California now....before the next devastating earthquake like the San Francisco earthquake of 1906?
New Orleans has survived for 300+ years, a unique American city in many respects...and having never experienced a "perfect storm" like Katrina, with the devastation compounded by a failure of the infrastructure due, primarily to a lack of funding.
I think your solution is a bit heavy handed.

IMO, the appropriations of the Republican Congress in 05 and 06 (and spread out over a period of 4+ years) were reasonable, it not a bit slow, much like the FEMA response (as well as the state/local response).
So why do you think Congress didnt do such a great job? Or is it the Democrats that you want to blame?
