    I was discussing this with some people at work and thought I'd see what you guys think.... Will the Katrina disaster and the ensuing economical impact lead to an upswing in Military recruitment? Will many of the refugees choose the Service over trying to rebuild their lives? Will others around the country who were not directly affected by Katrina but are struggling to keep up with rising costs related to gas prices be moved to join for those reasons?

    I don't really know what to think... It seems pretty far-fetched at this point, but it's also ripe for some fun conspiracy theory discussions.

    the ones who are so poor as to not even be able to afford gas and are able bodied should have already signed up.

    Yeah, military recruiting numbers were down so obviously Bush conjured up a cat 5 hurricane into a town with a large black population to fix that problem.

    Branding everyone who is on welfare in that way is just like me branding all conservatives as Pat Robertson supporters

    It's a en human tragedy going on out there. The levees were only supposed to hold back a CAT5 hurricane. However, the government still had days to prepare to send help, water, medicine, food. There are babies dieing of dehydration. No en excuse, No en excuse.

    Sorry, but MSNBC is showing raw footage of these people at the Superdome and I can't en believe that this is America. They showed a baby so weak it couldn't hold its head up. Where are the air drops?

    If they want real money they'll drive trucks over there for Haliburton. If you're going to risk your life anyway go for the bigger reward.
