Somebody ought to do a study on how many of those public assistance recipients remain in their new home. Are the benefits the same in both states? I'd bet the bennies in Texas were more generous based on what I've read about NO.

A large number have said they are staying wherever they have been sent. One the checks start to their new addresses, they will not leave. These cities and states might as well start building new public housing. Big break for La.

It'll be interesting to see the interaction between the local welfare population and the New Orleans imports. I suspect that the relationship won't be entirely "coordial."

Actually, I want New Orleans rebuilt as a 'gentrified' city...without all the public housing. In 1860, half of all the millionaires in the United States lived in Louisiana...principally, in New Orleans. I wish to return to those days. Only an extraordinary number of millionaires living in that City in the future will safeguard that City's safety and preservation. Eric The(Classless)Hun

No problem. Just have the Feds give each refugee/evacuee/bus-ee get one million in cash from the Feds on the condition that they move back to NO. So there. Problem solved. City of NO, the city of millionaires.

In Michigan, they want to take in 10,000. Most of them at Fort Custer near Ohio. I'm hoping most of them wonder South out of Michigan. Sorry about that Ohio.
P.S. They could become Ohio state fans.

Calories are cheap in America, especially carbohydrate calories. How many twinkies can you buy for $10. How many potato chips? How many boxes of instant mashed potatoes and hot dogs. High end, low-fat cuts of meat and produce is expensive. |

That is an interesting question. Yesterday some reporter called the storm victims, "Some of the poorest people in the world." My face immedialtely went from its usual:  to this:  That idiot had obviously never been anywhere near REAL poor people in a REAL 3rd world country. The lardassed leviathans he was referring to have never been hungry a day in their lives and have obviously never had to burn a calorie in physical exertion. Indeed hunger is the last thing on earth they've ever had to worry about. These so-called "poor" people would be called "rich" by the destitute in some other countries. I guess I'm just being cruel, though. After all many of them are, in the words of CNN Chief of Urban Psychoanthropology Dr. Wolf Blitzer, Phd, "Sooooooooooo poor, and soooooooooooo black."  I suppose I really should stop being surprised by the ignorance of t.v. reporters. |

Before 19th Century public housing, the slaves lived out back of the master's place. This is the first ETH post I can remember that makes no sense, or at best raises a big WTF? New Orleans is what it's always been - a shithole full of the dregs of society - whores, queers, pirates, and just general sorry ne'er do wells. Rebuild the French Quarter to celebrate Good Times, and doze the rest. When the taxpayers are footing the bills, they get a say in the use, even in our Republic. If New Orleans is worth rebuilding, the free market will handle it just fine. |

About one-third of the homes in New Orleans were reportedly covered by flood insurance. Who told you that flood insurance would be available in the future? Maybe only millionaires might be able to afford it in the future....but that's simply part of the 'gentrification' of N'awlins. Eric The(WellThoughtOut)Hun

What was that "pitful squalor" was section 8 housing. Goes to show you what will happen to TX section 8 neighborhoods. For those who are homeless and have only a desire to live off welfare, please don't come to CA as I've overtaxed and overburden on such people already. Sorry, I'm not just fresh out of sympathy for those that avoid work and have little respect for their neighborhoods. I was out some time ago as I've gave untold hundreds of thousands of dollars starting with the University seat I lost to an affirmative action candidate, the promotions and untold "time value of money" from lost salary increases that would have been, the denied transfers to better paying jobs to make that AA candidate look good, the lost jobs to AA candidates where it was obvious of the application process being a waste of time, the lost opportunitiy for early retirement instead of layoffs giving to AA candidates my age but not to me. The continuation of the heavy tax burden I pay for those welfare programs buried into all those government agencies at all levels of government right down to my city. Having no hope of gaining government loans for starting my own business unlike the AA candidates. Sorry, I'm defeated by design because some government wisdom of that I should be paying you all my working life. I have so please don't take your privileged class arse over here because you are too dumb to see that you have been the privileged class for at least three decades now. |

I smiled at your little joke, but it then made me think. Do you realize that if the government did indeed give these people a million dollars each, in a few years, they would all be broke and on welfare again. You can't pump enough money into these people's lives to save them. The problem isn't money. |

Quoted:
'19th Century public housing'? Where was that? You mean '20th Century public housing', right? In the 19th Century, all they had were county run 'poor houses', and that's about it.
Whatever. Post elsewhere, if you are not up for this particular discussion.
What sort of bullshiite is this? New Orleans was the cultural center of America at one time in its very glorious past. And still is, to some degree. If you see it as a City full of whores, queers, and pirates, I suggest that you find other bars to patronize in the future. Some of the lovliest and well-cared for residences in the world are located in New Orleans. The historic buildings are without equal anywhere in this hemisphere, and the architecture is without parallel. In short, it is a City in which this entire nation should take keen interest in saving and rebuilding. Now, get with the program or go find some 'looting' thread to register your disgust with the City.
For those who are only 'college kids' or 'tourists', go find another place to play. This is serious.
Damn straight it will, and that is my argument from the very beginning. Find out what it will cost to make the City 'bullet-proof', then figure out what residences and businesses would have to pay in annual taxes to support that kind of protection...then you can figure out what the square footage of a building in New Orleans will have to cost if you wish to move there. The historic areas can continue with lower tax rates, as tourism will assist in allowing them to carry their own weight. Simple, n'cest pa ? BTW, watch your mouth about 'whores, etc'. My family is from New Orleans. Eric The(FromGermanyInThe1830s)Hun

Federally subsidized housing. But it needn't be delapidated, old houses. The Feds will pay whatever it takes to move the poorest folks into formerly all-white neighborhoods...just a wee bity of 'social engineering'. In Plano, the Feds will pay up to $1,350.00 per month to rent houses! How about that??!! You have to work for your house payment...while others simply show up and collect on the Federal lottery!

Hit a nerve? Of course I know New Orleans isn't solely populated by society's dregs, but the concentration is too high for my tastes, and you're sufficiently smart to know the comment isn't directed at you. New Orleans thrives on celebration of the worst society has to offer; if the truth is otherwise, their politicians, Chamber of Commerce, tourism boards, and so on aren't doing a very good job portraying the city's other attractions. So which is it, from New Orleans or from Germany? You claim both in that post. New Orleans is no different than any other US city that saw it's glory in the 18th Century, and perhaps intp the early 1900's - many fine homes, world class architecture, music, art and so on. They also contained slums. I don't think I've seen a single post that disrespects your opinion about New Orleans, but you surely have taken the offensive against the opinions of others. |

Why, not at all. But idiotic generalizations always grate.
You casually knock such a City in which my forbears resided in such a callow manner, and I do take it personally.
Sir, I think you suffer from Mardi-Gras-itis. What attractions are you interested in? Whores, queers, and pirates?
All of my Mother's paternal ancestors arrived in New Orleans from Germany in the 1830s. Sorta makes me of German and New Orleans ancestry doesn't it? I would imagine that your family may have the same sort of 'phenomenon' occurring in it.
Bullshiite, again. No American City hosts the number of National Registry homes and historic homes that New Orleans does. Not even close! And, IF you reside anywhere in the Mississippi River Valley, you should know that New Orleans structures antedate anything y'all have by a good 30 years!
No shiite, Sherlock!
