I'm with you ... this is outrageous!

People really have to get over the government is Santa Claus mentality. Nothing like kicking a gift horse in the mouth - and that is exactly what they are doing. They should be grateful beyond words to have TEMPORARY housing till THEY get their act together and find another permanent home. I really don't understand these pocket pickers. You know darn well that what was destroyed was probably worse than the NEW trailer they are living in now - but no, they want a PERMANET home out of it.

I wish they'd just condem the areas typically affected by these storms and force people to get their acts together and move on. THIS is what America USED to be based on - you pick yourself up, and try again at your own expense.

Well no one seems to know or care about where the money comes from. When you have a society where you can get by with doing nothing and being a failure, yet still live ok because of the government, that's what happens. These people were steeped in the handout mentality their entire lives, it seems.
I know not everyone can help themselves, but how many people at the Superdome who were sitting and yelling "We want hayulp! We want hayulp!" Were COMPLETELY able to have been working, saving, whatever, for years before Katrina happened?
