I'd like to get your opinion on Falls Creek....

(I don't know how to post the handy links...sorry..)
In the "Why didn't Hollywood save New Orleans" thread, Happy Monkey's post #111 has a link - "refusal of individual assistance". The person who wrote the story sees the Falls Creek church camp being turned into more of a "refugee detainment center" than a refugee shelter. They cannot leave the camp for five months for any reason (not to visit somebody, apply for a job, shop, attend church, go out to eat. etc.etc.....).
They cannot use the kitchens located in each individaul cabin, accept donations from any more individuals or from the churches that own the cabin they're in. (It's not the church's cabin now, it's FEMA's for the next five months).
I'd really like to know what you folks think of this, assuming it's all true....
