New Orleans' poor refuse to work...

From the Washington Times:

  • Many of those engaged in the huge cleanup and reconstruction effort here -- nobody has an exact count -- are immigrants, both legal and illegal, from Mexico and Central America.

  • Meanwhile, as many as 80,000 New Orleanians sit idle in shelters around the country. They are out of work, homeless and destitute.


Of course, the left will tell you that the enormous majority of those on welfare want to work.
