One thing is certain, money speaks louder than cries for help.

Not only do the rich keep getting richer, but when disaster strikes, they are almost certainly the ones who will get the attention. Maybe since "trickle down economics" worked OHHH so well, they figure they would try "trickle down disaster recovery".

After the mess that is south Florida post Wilma it's very obvious that the special attention being paid to the "haves" was no fluke after Katrina..Because it's happening again.

Michael Moore (yes yes.. save your fat white guy jokes for someone else) has an article copied on his website from the Miami Herald (no liberal media jokes necessary...thanks). The article details the hell that has become Miami-Dade & Broward Counties after this storm. A week after the storm there are HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people with nothing left. Some not even a roof over their heads, food or water.

Here is the article:

Again I have to ask that everyone contact whoever they can in the media about this dire issue. For weeks after Katrina we heard about the hell that was New Orleans. And I'm not trying to marginalize what those people went through. But mind you the Greater New Orleans area is very concentrated & has a population of 1.3 Million people. The Tri-County area of Florida that was hit by Wilma has well over 5 Million residents. This story needs to be told & I'd be willing to bet that most Americans have no idea what is happening.

PLEASE contact the media sources I listed in the previous article & ask them to cover this story!

Victims of Wilma in Broward County FL need help!!

I just spoke with my Aunt who is stuck in Fort Lauderdale Florida.

She said that for the 4th straight day in Broward County only very small handful of the FEMA locations that was supposed to be providing water, ice & food to the people there was open. They have yet to see or hear from anyone from the Red Cross either.

Thankfully the Salvation Army has been working hard to feed at least 1 meal a day to some.

98% of Ft. Lauderdale is without power. And there is no fuel available for people there to supply generators with. My aunt drove up the turnpike to a gas station and waited 8 hours to get her $20 ration. They just got word they aren't expecting power to be back online until Nov. 18th.

There is aid going to Miami, but none of it seems to be getting to Ft. Lauderdale, which happens to have been hit harder than Miami. But that is Jeb Bush's fault. There's a reason the focus is on Miami & it's not due to triage. The Cuban/Hatian vote in Miami is HUGE for him to retain his office.

Please, get the word out that there are people north of Miami who need help & aren't getting it for no good reason other than Jeb Bush's personal agenda!

I originally thought about having people contact the Governor, but at this time that wouldn't be effective. The best way to get these people help is going to be to get them attention via the media.

Please contact any of the media outlets above or others that you know of & let them know this is a dire situation & getting worse by the second.
