Not to cause an argument but aren't there shitloads of poor and homeless in the US already?

Why does them all being in the same place make the disaster worse? I often wonder that after a crisis.

More people die on American roads every month than died in the hurricane - but nobody is setting up a government task force on road death.

You want the government to save lives and help people - that's very laudable, and I applaud you in expressing it.

I'm really sorry if this came across as a rant against you - it isn't meant to; I'm just constantly astonished that it takes hundreds of deaths in one place to shift focus.
