The Human Condition on the Gulf Coast

I just caught this video clip off of CNN's website that I am afraid probably speaks for many families who were hit by Hurricane Katrina. The devastation is massive. In spite of the fluff conversation I caught last night on a news program about whether or not the federal government should be paying for disaster relief at all for those who choose to live near the coasts, I hope help alleviates the suffering there as soon as possible. From what I could see, it looks like people could use more than simply food, clean water, and shelter. How much does it cost to put one's life back together?

This man's expression will haunt me all day.
