Shenanigans

So the claims against the government for Katrina have officially reached the "fucking absurd" level. Previously, we were at "goddamned stupid". Even leaving out the asinine git who thought that $3 quadrillion was even a number that made sense, there's way too much money being claimed. $14 trillion is greater than the US gross domestic product, and for that kind of money, I could drain the Louisiana swamps, turn the place into Disney World, give everybody in Louisiana and Mississippi a new house, and still have money left to give hookers and blow to every elected official on the Gulf Coast. Plus, I could profit tidily from skimming off the top to the point my descendants wouldn't have to work until the sun goes dark.

I hope all you people in North Dakota (all 6 of you) and the rest of the country appreciate having to pay for generations of Gulf Coast residents refusing to understand the weather. However much the fed doles out, it's too much.
