Remembering Katrina's Victims

While Federal, State, and Local officials continue to blame each other for the lack of a coordinated, professional approach to providing help where it was needed most during the Katrina disaster, homeowners in the Gulf must start paying their mortgages or the foreclosure processes will begin.

Think about it; if your city got hit by a natural disaster or terrorist attack, what would happen to you? Assuming you get out, you may be lucky and get a government assisted apartment for a couple months, where do you go from there?

Do you have credit card debt? Imagine losing everything to a natural disaster or terrorist attack and not being allowed to declare bankruptcy? The new bankruptcy laws are what American citizens get from those presently in power.

If we hope to make sure government does its job - PROTECTING US - we need to get involved. Too many Americans don't even bother to vote. Citizens need to get off their asses and take this country back from the selfish machine politicians, or quit bitching. Big Money is warping our national priorities.

FYI – Michigan is the only state in the USA where citizens are precluded by law from suing a pharmaceutical company. This was pushed through by John Engler and his Republican partners in the state house. Someone should take a look and remind us of who voted for that bill.

Americans need to work together to make this country a better place. We need to stop calling each other names like "tax and spend liberal" and "Torture loving Right Wing Nut Job" and figure out ways to leave this world better than we found it, for the sake of all our children.
