These are not people that are getting welfare or food stamps becase they don't want to or can't work, these are people who lost everything in a natural disaster. I am assuming that one could get into an apartment, buy some groceries and be thankfull to have a roof over their families head or at the very least they will have some basics to start rebuilding their lives.

Perhaps if one were to closely examine the demographic of the typical 'survivor', or not-refugee, or evacuee, or what ever, one might draw the conclusion that many are well versed in the ins and out of the welfare system. True, not all, but many. Giving this demographic essentially free money, with no accountability is not a formula for social elevation....

I think you're the only one who mentioned race.

Why would that be?
