Homeland Security-Just Business as Usual?? |
XCHOUX |
03/25/04 |
"Time Magazine" this week:
Where are the highest risks for terorist attacks? According to AIR Worldwide Corp, New York is number one, followed by Illinois(Chicago-land) then California. They calculated the risk based on the potential insured losses by state.
And the MONEY goes to: North and South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Vermont. DC, and Alaska!! Distributing homeland-security money gives a disproportionate amount to less populated places!
Wyoming: the least populous state in the US..493,000 people is a wide open place and the capital does not even have an airport that can service jets.
Meanwhile, I practically SEE 500,000 people a day when I go out, and just south of where I live is a suburb with a Mosque that has had two terrorists-either sent to jail(he confessed!) or deported for funding terrorists!
Come on now!

Time magazine is about as unbiased as Ted Kennedy.
They like to sling around secret words like: "disproportionate amount" to make us believe that they are receiving "more" money than NY.
Garbage in, garbage out should be motto of Time. |
