Can anyone tell me why the people who have lost everything on the East Coast have not rioted, raped or robbed each other? It is because they are hard working individuals who don't wait for the government to do everything for them like down in New Orleans.

I bet New Jersey will be rebuilt once again and the people in New Orleans will still be waiting for a handout.
