Your Tax Money at WorK: FEMA Money Used for Louis Vuitton Purchases

If I had just lost my house in the hurricane, I'd go straight to Prada. You know, shopping just makes you feel better. I guess a lot of the victims prefer Louis Vuitton, though. No accounting for taste I guess.

2 It'll be interesting to see where these cards are used as time goes by. This is just the first specialty store that spoke up. I wonder if they're able to use it as a debit card for cash at an ATM? And if it gets used to buy crack.

3 Any comment I cared to make would just be redundant, since pretty much everyone is thinking the same things right now, but I will say that I wish I was shocked by this news.

4 IM, I know exactly what you're thinking. And the thought was in my head too.

5 It's amazing how we all have to speak in code now, lest certain people accuse us of certain crimes. Wait, is it wrong to say "we", and "us", and "certain people"? Oh crap, I'm going to get taken to a reeducation camp.

8 We had money deposited into our account and damn if my crack dealer didn't all his crack in the flood. But seriously, there will always be people who exploit the system, the reality is that the majority of us REALLY needed the help. Do you know how much a hotel room costs for a month....$54 for a 30 day stay!
