Wait! I thought all the money that could have gone to Louisiana went to Iraq instead.
IMO, the money should be left there. Keep track of how it's spent, by whom is it spent, and on what is it spent on. If it's seen to have been used on anything other than its intended purpose, NOLA shouldn't get one red cent more. This would hurt the truly deserving, and maybe the voters there will wake up and kick the Nagins and Blancos out of office and get more resposible people in there to do the job they're elected to do and not line their own greedy pockets. Let it serve to be an object lesson in post-disaster relief.
I am not insensitive to the plight of those in NOLA. I look at it as though the elected are stealing from me when the relief funds are used to feather their own beds. That's when changes have to be made.
