No one alleges that he caused the hurricaine. I think that when the government is going to give help so little and so late, that it could at least make sure that the help it gives doesn't create new problems. It isn't like this is something where the risk itself of formaldehyde (sp?) wasn't known at the time.

So you would have left them in tents?

It's not like a better option was available and they ignored it.

What would you have had them do? If you don't have an answer, then maybe we should lay off the judgment a smidgen.

Now, I sure would have had them handle the testing differently, but even so, if you don't have 38,000 hotel rooms available, what would you do?

Seriously, what would you have done? Where would you have put them? Where should all those families go now?

Seriously, I think there isn't a perfect solution, but no one is arguing for perfection. I think if the government had made FEMA relief more of a priority (which I think it would have done had the people needing help been white wealthy families) that we could have done better than that.

You can think it, but it doesn't make it reality.

What can you come up with for non-perfect solutions? What solutions do you think would have appeared had the folks been richer and whiter?
