Reply #7: am I wrong or was the initial NY pledge after 911 about 19 billion? [View All]

[salin]

Of course later it was alleged that the feds reneged and never gave the amount pledged (cut backs - to give rich folks and corps tax cuts, dontcha know?)

So - initial pledge for a bigger disaster is only half of that to NYC post 911 - AND with the history of reneging - how much will this be diminished by (to give the current proposed round of bushco tax cuts - and the taxcuts in the current energy bill/gift give away to energy companies some of which are already ruthlessly gouging consumers)?
