Yes you are correct. However politicans aren't logical nor reasonable creatures. They have knee jerk responses; pander to their largest campaign contributors and the MSM; do only what makes them look good to the general public.

I wish each one of the politican/morons would HAVE to count out (using paper squares, gravel, whatever) equal to the dollar amount that will be spent on rebuilding NO. And even then I don't think they would understand the cost.

They are falling all over themselves to see who can be more generous with taxpayer money.

Is that constitutional ?
