SASless. nobody questions the size and scale of the disaster but a big country needs big plans and big answers. Why when evacuating the city do they only use one side of the freeway and then sit in a monster traffic jam? Why were the water convoys equipped in Texas on the Monday but not deployed until the Thursday? Why are there still bodies floating in the water being ignored by those sent to clear up and assist? Why did gun sales in areas where the displaced persons were being sent rocket sky high?
I like America but until the general population stop patting themselves on the back for achieving medicority then you won't deserve the 'greatest country' accolades you are you quick to give yourselves.
