No, I meant in the original disaster areas. Apparently the HOuston and other outside areas are very well run.



I tossed in a BBC link, some tourists who spent some time in the astrodome, and since went back to Britain tell of racial tensions and fighting...

maybe it was isolated.

CITIZEN,

Thank you for your kind words.

In this situation, I can't understand why anyone can't see the obvious problems. Of course, the folks who are suffering in N.O. are "politically insignificant" to today's politicians.

I agree with others' observations that only a revolution will change things, but I would be surprised if that happens.

Of course once you start objecting to way the US government treats Americans they have no use for...

start taking a long hard look at US foreign policy and all those other people they have no use for..........


If a revolution starts, you will definately have allies
