As im sure youve all heard, recently a hurricane struck Mississippi and Louisiana, Quite damaging that coastal region. It is now said that deaths are numbering past the hundreds, maybee thousands. People are now evacuating New Orleans, as it is now mandatory, and all power, water, and other utilites have been shut off to the region.
As my grandpa lives in bay st lois, a town that has been reported to be up to 12 ft underwater, i take this recovery quite personoly. Its been reported that the water in several ares litterly seeped into atticks, where refugees from rising waters seeked haven, but in the end litterly giving them no escape and no optinon but to sit there and drown.
And if things seem horrible yet, even something thats already a very sensitive issue, gas prices, are being effected. Today i noticed gas lines backing up traffic from upto half a mile. Prices are expected to go to 4 dollars, maybee more. Even with reserves being used, this contries infastructure has taken quite a hit. However generous countries such as england and germany, as far as ive heard, have offered help for this disaster.
Also, please, I beg of you, do NOT turn this into a political debate, as i can see this going into that direction somehow, ill keep my conservitive loud mouth comments out of this, please do the same.
If you're so smart, why are you reading my post?
