95. Astrodome today, where tomorrow? don't take this the wrong way but...
Just where do you house approximately 1 million people who lost their homes and their jobs?

There are likely 80,000 people who did not evacuate, but they represent a small number of people without homes. Who can afford to live in a hotel forever? What do you do when temporary shelters have to close because they simply cannot meet the basic needs of the people?

How long do you think these displaced American citizens are going to be content to stay in sports facilities and depend on limited hand outs while they do nothing?

Somebody in Washington DC better be thinking bigger than this.
