Personally, I think able-bodied male evacuees should be housed in tents, outside of the New Orleans city limits, where they could sleep and rest after they worked a normal shift helping to clean and recover their city, hopefully further upriver.

Why should they lounge on a cruise ship while our troops are there working on recovering bodies and cleaning the city up?

They don't go and work, cut off their "guvmint" check!!!

It's time to stop the free ride, that's what ended up causing a lot of this mess. A welfare state leaving people dependent on an AWOL local "guvmint."

I thought I heard earlier that these ships were going to be used for the elderly, very young, and ill.

I agree. Gis and police were working supplies, and the evacuees were just standing around. We've had floods here in NC, and WE ALL work together. I don't get it when these slobs just sit around, waiting for others to... forget it. I'll get banned.
