This is the kind of thing that you read and you just kind of skim over it.

But can you imagine? Where do 1,500 families live while they rebuild? And how do you rebuild that many houses? How do you afford it if you are one of those families? Did they have insurance then?

How many families lived in those formaldehyde FEMA trailers after Katrina? Was it like that?
