[QUOTE="scratch, post: 93500, member: 1674"] wkmac, I agree with your post, way too much of this money was handed out without any consequences and abused. In the Atlanta area, where we live, we had tens of thousand evacuees move here, I live off I-20 and can remember how crowded my little town was the Saturday after Katrina hit. I remember some of this FEMA money showed up in the strip clubs here. We still have some "Ray Nagin For Mayor" billboards up, hard for me to believe that idiot won re-election. I found a displaced New Orleans Package Driver on my delivery area a few days after Katrina. His house was right beside one of the levees, and it was a total loss. He was smart and got out, his insurance covered his material losses. I was able to hook him up with my Center Manager and he was rehired in my Center. He has twenty plus years in, he was put on bottom of our seniority list and is still here as a swingdriver. He hopes to stay here, he said he was going to quit UPS if he hadn't got on. No way will he go back to New Orleans. [/QUOTE]
