Have you seen the pictures from Iowa, etc. of the people looting the liquor stores, carrying away televisions from retail stores, sitting on the roof begging for someone to take care of them, collected in the baseball stadium complaining about the food and shelter being provided?
Neither have I.
Is this a shot at the people of New Orleans? Or are you implying that the US government reacted more quickly and effectively to help people in Iowa?
on a side note, my brother in law lives in St. Louis and he sent me some stunning photos this weekend from the area by the Arch. One good one was a highway overpass where the water was about six inches below the bottom of the overpass....which was 12 ft 2 inches high. Yikes. And he said it was as high as 20 feet in other places.
Good luck midwest.
