I find it curious that this is the first post from, uhhh, Thomas. BTW, Thomas, if it's a blog that you got from the internet, how do you know that the author is a white kid from New Orleans? You got that extra special spyware that let's you reverse the flow of a monitor to let you see the user on the other end? hmmmmm, profiles says Thomas joined today. Couldn't wait to get this out, huh? On this site, huh? Them, huh? Somebody put a sheet over this guy's(?) head so everyone can see him(?) coming.
Ugh. Hold please. I'll google it and find the "blog." Edit: Can't seem to find it. It's a good commentary though. I agree.
i do agree that we do our people as massive injustice when they are placed completely at the mercy of the government, it's true, the government isn't perfect. but there's just such a huge variety of reasons why peple are in that situation to begin with that who knows how the hell you fix it.
i cant seem to figure out how this "white kid" from New Orleans posted this blog on the net to begin with. I would like to believe that if New Orleans is 85% to 90% submerged in water, that the electricity would be out, therefore no computer.. just a thought. "thomas" get a life.
the blogger has a point, but i'd be damn sure "99%" of the people there weren't relying on the gov't for everything. We all know 78% of all statistics are made up on the spot. But I can see why depending on the gov't is a bad long term planning strategy. Self sufficiency is going to be better, but what about if something happens to you (you, like the gov't, are not perfect. plus, you are far less in control of external events than a powerful gov't).
