Auto industry is going to boom. Small businesses are going to boom. Its going to be fun for many people. Construction and landscaping companies, independent electricians, plumbers, etc they are going to make a bank. Christmas has come early for these guys. While many people wont be celebrating christmas because of all the mess they have to deal with.

My question is this, if this technically isn't even classified as a serious hurricane and this much damage was done, what would a more serious event do? It seems like this catastrophe highlights a lot of not very well thought out deigns/poorly maintained buildings.
