Playing it out
Hurricane Katrina has proven itself to be quite a juggernaut, decimating a great city, and bringing our civilized society face-to-face with some of its basest, most animalistic proclivities. New Orleans has been turned into a third-world country and is unlikely to come back as the magnificent place it once was.
Amidst all of this, of course, people are still finding ways to complain about their own well being, chief among them being the price of gas necessary to keep their ostentatious way of life afloat.
People are dying in the streets. A city is falling apart. People are thirsty, starving, looting, and shooting each other. And people complain about how their commute is killing their budget? Seriously.
Take your goddamn quality of life and send it somewhere that needs it. We could be at the start of a new age, and it behooves us to become concerned with each other again.
