.. It's too early to have a comprehensive assessment of Rita's effect on the US economy but it looks like the worst is over and only with minimal damage compared to storm Katrina. The good news, if ever there is one, is that the oil industry was spared with refineries and oil rigs sustaining little or no damage at all. The country cannot afford long term damage with the weak economy already reeling from Katrina, loss of jobs and the deficit. It looks like it might just survive this onslaught.
