How many trailers are sinking in the mud, at what cost per month, and how |
|
many jacks are they going to buy to prop up all four corners of ea. one? And how many homeless Katrina victims are there? Unbelieveable! Yet another fucking theft!

No telling what WE paid for them. Probably got them from the Bush/Cheney Trailer Corp. for about 20 million each!

5. I'm certain I heard $850 million for 25,000 trailers or manufactured homes |
|
in the hearing. And then to top it off only 2200 or so (maybe 1200, it became confusing) had been delivered, some to help house personnel fighting fires in TX and OK. The jist of it was the homes that were paid for could and would not be used and will end up in a sale for pennies on the dollar. WTF?!
HOW MUCH MORE ARE WE GOING TO STAND FOR?

3. As a person who would love to build a small single |
|
occupancy granny flat on her families property I can't help but wonder if they are going to take the time to salvage the fixtures in those trailers. Surely there are uses for them.

6. Meanwhile, Katrina (& Rita) evacuees are being kicked out of hotels. |
|
They should have been moved from the hotels months ago.
