First off, it's ridiculous that people are spending money that was donated to help them start over on strippers and designer fashion wear.
I really hope FEMA is only giving out XX amount of money and once it's gone, it's gone. Of course then we will still have all these poor bastards running around crying how poor they are and they lost everything to the Katrina....while they are wearing designer clothes I'm sure.
I don't see why the gov't can't keep a tighter leash on thes idiots. In the military we have debit cards for certain expenses. For instance gas. When I fill up a gov't vehicle I can only use low grade gas and I have to make record of what the mileage is so they can determine if I'm getting the proper mile/gal and not just stealing gas for my own vehicle. If you get caught filling up with premium you have to pay the difference, and if you get caught stealing you get charged with an article 15 and have to pay all the money back (the entire credit card charge) plus interest. Fair in my opinion.
There are a number of refugee's about a half hour where I'm from. Needless to say I don't want the staying here b/c of the trouble they bring.
I have a few brothers and friends that got called up to help with base security. They confiscated guns, drugs, knives, etc. They also had to keep all the single women in a seperate barracks so they wouldn't be harrassed/raped at night. Additionally the MP's had to constantly patrol to keep them from fighting/stealing/destroying property. Needless to say I don't want people like that living in my area. Send them back down to the slums.
