Restoration to almost 20,000 homes which still lie destroyed in Louisiana, with over 7,000 of those homes in New Orleans alone, was supposed to paid for by funds specifically set aside to help those impacted by Hurricane Katrina.
That isn’t going to happen anymore as Mother Jones reporter Mac McClelland informs as as she shines some light on the latest act of disgrace by the Federal Government in her article titled Robbing New Orleans to Pay for BP’s Spill.

Standard policy in Washington over decades. Just like Social Security. It isn't broke, IT'S ROBBED BLIND. Real SS reform would be to raise the withholding a quarter point, CLAW BACK THE FUNDS THAT WERE EMBEZZLED, & pass legislation to keep congress from EVER treating it as their personal piggybank again. The continual moving of the goalpost with older & older retirement ages HAS GOT TO CEASE TOO. Permalinkadd a comment | go to forum thread
