Revealing truth

From MRC:

"Here in New Orleans tonight, the water that came through this neighborhood a year ago destroyed a lot. It exposed a lot, too, including, some say, the dicey issues of race and class in our country. Why didn’t certain people leave? Who did get out? Was any of this in any way intentional?"

When we're listing what it exposed, how about including, "If you live in a hole nine feet below sea level, you can expect to have nine feet of water in your house," and "If you live in stupid, unsustainable circumstances, don't expect the rest of th nation to pay for the cost of your risk-taking while giving you the benefits."
