US Officially A Third World Country
New Orleans Turns To Foreign Aid
The cash-strapped city is turning to foreign countries for help to rebuild as federal hurricane-recovery dollars remain slow to flow. As of June 8, the city said it had received just over half of the $320 million FEMA has obligated for rebuilding city infrastructure and emergency response-related costs.......here
It’s been nearly two years since Hurricane Katrina, and we have yet to seriously attempt to restore one of the most-fabled U.S. cities
Maybe They Should Ask Venezuela And Cuba For Some Help. In Katrina's Wake, Castro Offered To Send More Than 1,000 Medical Personnel To New Orleans.

Thank you Stoogie for supporting my hometown. I will never feel the same way about what is supposedly my own country. It has betrayed the ideals I once had of it. The ONLY thing that has upheld my ideals are the beautiful people from all over the world that have come to the aid of NOLA. Thank you for not forgetting us.
