5. A man who called in, he was letting Thom Hartmann know...
Thom also said, there were Recruiting officers at the Astrodome! I want to wait and see if progress reporters will come out with this informations as days go by! If this is true, we will hear about it for sure!

4. The survivors don't want to go all over the country. They want
to stay near their homes and get back as soon as possible.

States everywhere were setting up apartments (where I live people were cleaning apartments for the families to stay in), housing, etc. but people don't want to go.

Plus, they want to find all their family members before they go anywhere and, if they have family somewhere in the country, they want to go stay with them or near them.

It makes sense, when you actually think about it.

6. Yes, that would be great if it was ture and that would only make sence
However, under FEMA, people are NOT being told where they're going until they're on the airplanes or on the bus!

8. Right, so the people are refusing to go. I know that. WTF is
FEMA's problem. If people have family near certain areas so they could use the housing, etc. that would be the way to do it.

They are treating people terribly. It is disgusting.

People just want to help but FEMA continues to fuck everything up.

It is the same as in the days immediately after Katrina when states, corporations and individuals all tried to send help and FEMA turned it away or wrapped it up in red tape so it couldn't get used.

7. I've been thinking about this in relation to the deceased
There are so many people being moved to distant places it seems that this will make it less likely that the dead will be identified.
People will never know where their loved ones went, or even if they survived.

I think it's unacceptable that American dead be buried without being identified.
