There are tons of jobs available in the NO area and Biloxi.
They pay $100 a day, plus $35 for food, plus free hotel.
That comes out to about $40K a yr.
How come these hurricane "refugees" aren't down there working?

Because they're getting more that without working from the govt for being "victims"? (sad but true)
The Revs Al and Jesse love to blame someone else for their own problems and then demand reparations.
It's because there is no housing down here. There are jobs. And they are paying extremely well. And if one were to take a job, then one could theoretically afford housing. But there is no housing to be had.
So unless these folks can get a FEMA trailer somewhere, they've got nowhere to live here, and therefore, there is little incentive to work here. The people who actually are here an not working, on the other hand, simply have no excuse.
They aren't working because they are used to sitting on their backsides getting our tax money to but their groceries. A leech won't let go if you keep pumping blood into it.
