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!

    Comments?........

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.
