Good article, one that the LIB MSM will do all it can so that it will never be covered on any station. Because it doesn't play to emotions or their AGENDA!

Nope they'll have none of that.
Because the minute you blame welfare you'll be accused of racism.

It really is a sad "state" of affairs we are in.
BINGO!
"It is a man-made disaster."
It was a disaster waiting to happen.
What a shame for the folks who live there.
In historical retrospect, the welfare state will be seen as a means for the total state to reduce its human population to the status of livestock.
Spin that, you socialist b*stards!
As I posted on a previous thread, I want to see a complete demographic breakdown on who was left. That the population of NOLA was predominantly black is not a question, it's a fact (60 or 70%). So one would thus assume that all things being equal, those left behind would also be predominantly black. The bigger question is what is the detailed make-up of the people that were left behind? It's definitely way to simplistic to simply call them poor and black. Forget colour for the moment, I would like to see a breakdown on other demographics: 1. How many of these were drug-dealers, gang members, prostitutes, street thugs of one sort or another (my guess is that based on the profile of the people that were at the dome, a very high percentage) and how many of these 'street people' never got the word to get out (let alone being about the hardest group to organize, round-up and evacuate), 2. How many of the thugs planned to stay there simply to loot the place because no one would be around to stop them, 3. How many of those left were ones generally classified as homeless and never got the word to get out (simply because they are street people and thus important information bypasses them), 4. How many that remained had the chance to get out and never took it, 5. How many of these have had the chance to get out SINCE the hurricane and didn't voluntarily take it. 5. And so on and so on. No doubt there were also a lot of decent folks left behind that never had a hope but these may have well been in the minority. My guess is that even with the ineptness by the city and the state, a huge percentage of the ones that were left were destined to stay there because either they were determined to ride it out, never got the word or were so 'busy' doing what street people and thugs do that they wouldn't have left under any circumstances. One thing for sure, colour had nothing to do with anything.

for your consideration
This has to be the best account of the New Orleans situation I have read. The said fact is that New Orleans isn't the only city that the welfare mindset has taken hold. I know that when the SHTF in American big cities we will see a lot more of this. The advice I am giving to my family and friends is to stock up of food, arms and anything you will need to ride out a disaster and don't depend upon anyone but your family, friends and church.
You're damn right.
