Considering that all the people who are contributing members of society, those who already own property and businesses, and those who have jobs, are already back living in NO, I wouldn't want the rest of the folks living in my backyard either.

The people who are months later still living off of the gubmint teet are not going to make any neighborhood better.

Whatever happened to pulling yourself up and taking care of your own problems?

Apparently, you have not spent much time in New Orleans since Katrina. But, perhaps you could explain to me how all the home owners of Lakeview, Mid City, the 9th Ward and large area of Uptown are living in their flooded homes.

Where did you get the idea that all "contributing members of society" in New Orleans have a place to live?
