You know ... the old saying comes to mind ... baggers can't be too choosy. I don't mean to sound calloused but if they are in a trailer it is because their old house was condemned. I'd say living in a trailer is better than being homeless. Of course there is the OBVIOUS option of taking matters in your own hands and moving to a safer area and chose what you can afford to live in. I have MAJOR issues when people totally depend on the government to make life better and then fault what is given to them on a TEMPORAY basis to live in.

The cost of the cottage, they argue, is hard to beat. FEMA is spending about $75,000 to deliver and install each of the 23- to 28-foot trailers for storm victims. A Katrina Cottage can be set up for less than $60,000, manufacturers say.

Are you upset that the government is spending more money on an inferior solution?
