My point was that immigrants today, especially ones who are given legal status as soon as they get here, should be the last people complaining about where federal tax dollars get spent, considering that so many dollars are spent on them and their families before they ever contribute to the national treasury.

New Orleans is not full of people on welfare. Please provide some data other than what you heard on fox news during hurricane Katrina if you're going to continue to insult the people here. New Orleans today is alot different than the New Orleans of 5 years ago.

As for your comment about having 3 years to get our shit together...apparently you have a reading comprehension problem, so I'll type this really slow so you can u-n-d-e-r-s-t-a-n-d.

The federal government is in charge of building and maintaining the levees. State and Local Governments have absolutely no say in this matter. It is federal law and we have no choice but to be at the mercy of the feds. The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT decided to have a timeline for rebuilding our levees that would have them completed in 2011. The levees breaking is why New Orleans flooded last time, and the levees being topped and/or broken this time will be why New Orleans floods, if it floods.

It might make you feel better to think that it's the fault of all the stupid blacks on welfare who were lazy during the last 3 years and didn't prepare properly....but the person at fault is a Yale educated white guy from a wealthy family who lives on Pennsylvania Ave, along with the people who work for him.


Sorry honey but you are the stupid cunt. You choose to use Miami as your city of rant. The immigrants there are legal citizens and they do work so they can bitch all they want about where the money goes. They pay taxes too. It does not matter that you have paid then longer then some of them. As for the people on welfare in New Orleans would you like the stats before or after Hurricane Katrina because I have both. Plenty were on it before the hurricane. It is not that bad there now because many people moved to Texas so they will drain that state. I do not have a reading issue. Perhaps you should read this link http://www.endlongtermhomelessness.o...less_rate.aspx

"One problem contributing to the high number of people who are homeless is that existing low-cost housing units that were damaged in the hurricane are being torn down instead of being replaced. " So there were a lot of low cost housing before the hurricane hit.

You want to bitch about paying taxes to teach people English who come here on a boat. Well I can ask you why the hell should US tax payers be paying for low income housing for people born and raised in the USA? Some of us are sick of paying for generations of families that mooch off of the system. So rant and rave all you want. I do not think we should abandon New Orleans like some people have suggested but something has to be done. No one wants to pay to fix that city every few years. It is to damn expensive.
