I liken the situation to the the band playing on while the Titanic sank, pretending that everything is okay. Everything may SEEM okay for this month, yet we are walking on very thin ice (sorry for bad titanic pun).

Officials should encourage us to conserve atleast a certain percentage of the shortfall in the GOM. But I am afraid our leaders are too busy trying to profit once again on the tragedy of our nation's citizens.

Who obtained no-bid contracts for the aid /relief efforts promised by congress?

How about Haliburton and the same profiteers of our recent wars abroad...
