So true!!
The people affected by the flood lived in the most undesirable areas in
N.O. The areas are undesireable because they are low land and can flood.
The reason we saw so many black people in flooding is because that's who
is forced by finances to live there.
The people in those areas have home mortgages of $150 a month.
And the reason it's $150 is because after 20 years they got home equity
loans to buy used cars so the mortgage rose from the original $99 a month.
This is hard to phathom for people who pay $2200 a month for their place, but this
is how poor people survive.
"Get shit house in hell hole, get shit car without insurance, get sick and avoid good doctor
with high fees, pull tooth rather than fix...etc..." and then pray that the slightest
fuck up never occurs. Because when it does, they are thru.
