    So you've asked them personally about what family and circumstances they
    want to be born into? Fascinating!

    You are saying you'd turn down help with costs due to your own principles?
    Cool! Send back all monies from the past if there are any. And thank you!

    Correct. Don't remember any ocean-front property in New Orleans occupied by
    low-rent types of people. Rich people always live on the high ground. Rumor
    has it they do that so they can look down on their charges. May be true,
    just may be.

    Correct. When will you be sending the buses?

    Germany prior to our engagement in WWII did this - to the Jews. Remember
    your history? You can't move your so-called problems so far away never to
    be seen again.

    Let's just hope that those who are now forced to live elsewhere by no choice
    of their own (no buses, remember?) make the best of it and succeed finally.

    Our country's leaders have now led a HUGE social experiment - moving the
    poorest of the poor all over the country. Maybe it's God's will, eh? Maybe
    those righteous bastards (see so-called Moral Majority) have an in with God
    who guided them to their self perceived greatness once more by moving
    sinners to areas of the country where they can learn from what else,
    non-sinners.

    And God bless.

    Tom
