Thanks for that.

I don't understand why in a democracy the people of New Orleans, or similar, keep voting for people who perpetuate such a system.

heh..
we've got the same thing in DC called Marion Barry Syndrome.

"The People of DC" all have one thing in common with "The People of NO" but because of PC we're not allowed to say it.

All you get from voting in good government is a fair playing field, which still requires you to work hard to succeed. Vote in characters like this, on the other hand, and maybe you will get a chance to share in the loot. ;)
