#1 I'm from that area and I have very little sympathy...yrs and yrs of electing corrupt politicians, govt malfeasance & absolutely no accountability on the part of most of the citizens has brought de-toilet to where it's at now. Youtube detroit city council and you'll LYAO at the sheer stupidity of the decision makers.

#5 This time the culprit was not a natural disaster but a collapsing economy, foreclosure crisis and shredded social safety net that the federal government has only begun to repair.

#8 The federal government ... must do more to keep families in their homes and neighborhoods intact.

No, it does NOT. That's been the problem - instead of allowing things to work themselves out, the "Government" has stepped in and warped reality for these folks for a generation or more. Now the "government" has run out of other people's money, and everything is collapsing at once. The person that wrote this should be sent to some place like Virginia Dale, Colorado, to live the rest of their lives on what they can eke out of that part of Colorado's desert plains. Maybe that would give them an insight into what "progressivism" means.

#9 I saw the pictures and none of those people looked like they were starving. In fact, they all looked a little (or a lot in some cases) overweight. Maybe they need to get up off their butts a little more often.
