There are probably many people that would have loved to move away from NO

southern Louisiana; a lot of them probably knew that the possibility of
disaster was there.

But most poor people don't have a choice of where to live.

HORSE****!

No matter how rich or poor, we all (Err... well, there are *SOME*
unfortunate exceptions, but that's exactly what they a exceptions)
come equipped with two feet and can start walking and/or hitchhiking to
get someplace else. Don't even *TRY* to give me the bull**** "They were
too poor to leave" whine. The *ONLY* ones who can't leave anytime they
want to bad enough are those with broken bodies, and those under
restraint. (Thinking specifically of prison/jail inmates, though there
may be the rare "other reason for being restrained" types) Everybody
else, no matter how rich or poor, is free to come and go by whatever
method happens to work, whether that means a private jet, a luxury motor
home, a 20 year old, oil-belching Datsun clunker that calls making 35
MPH a damn fine run, a bicycle, or shank's mare.

Where were they going to go to?

Anyplace you can get to that puts more distance between you and "the
problem", whatever it happens to be, than where you're standing right
now. If that means you start hoofing for Alaska, then so be it, but the
main point is *GET THE HELL OUT* by any means possible.

Oh yes! The feds or their state welfare department

If you're relying on the government - ANY government, be it federal,
state, county, city, or some other coutnry's government - for your
survival, then quite frankly, you're too stupid to be allowed to
continue drawing breath, and should be summarily shot as the worthless
drain on society you are.

And no, I don't give a flying **** how ill you may think of me for
saying so. Think of it as evolution in action.
