While this
thought is still fresh in our brain, let's take a look at New
Orleans It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division . .
Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D), is presently asking the Congress for $250
BILLION to rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number, what does it
mean?
A. Well, if you are one of 484,674 residents of New
Orleans (every man, woman, child), you each get
$516,528.
B. Or, if you
have one of the 188,251 homes in New
Orleans, your home gets $1,329,787.
C. Or, if you are a family of
four, your family gets $2,066,012.
