Quote: Once again you've changed the subject....The actions or corruption were never addressed in my statement.
Things don't happen in a vaccum. At the same time you can't say decree a cause and effect relationship if you haven't isolated the other variables.
In the case at hand, there were many variables that did or may have contributed to what happened here. The fact you chose not to discuss them does not mean they didn't happen or were insignificant.
More importantly, however, they were all actions of government. Which tends to prove, not disprove, that government is--at least in many cases--the problem, not the solution.

I'm still waiting for that 'sting like a bee' part. I thought 'doublespeak' was a term created by Orwell to describe Stalinism. Seems like the lesson of the Bolsheviks was not lost on American conservatives.
This is a true statement:
The Bush Administration cut funding for improvements on the levees to support tax cuts which benefited the wealthiest 5% of Americans. When Katrina struck those levees could not hold back the storm surge. They failed. This was a major contibutor to the destruction that befell the City of New Orleans. Had the recommended improvements been made the disaster may have been greatly reduced.
Since you haven't disputed it, I'll assume you accept it as true.
