It's the sluggish, seemingly incompetent and disorganized federal response to the hurricane that people are complaining about.

Not to mention that in this country an "evacuation plan" is simply to scream, "Okay everyone, get into your cars and leave."

Re: once again, monk misses the point
Hi, Monk.
​
I did a quick Google search, and I couldn't find where New Orleans, Louisiana, or the federal government had plans to commandeer trains or buses for transportation, set up assembly points, or provided for refugee camps outside the danger zone. The impression I got was that if people didn't have a means of transportation, a place to go, or a way of providing for themselves they were stuck.
​
Of course, this was a very quick search and I may have missed it.

Looters. Let's shift the discussion to looters. That usually works.

Oops

What you need for any evacuation from any place is:
- a secure place of refuge
- food, shelter, clothes,
- medical\emotional assistance
- communication\identification\recognition
​
You forgot one: a way of getting the people to the secure place of refuge.
