The poor people of California are suffering as much as the people of New Orleans and all the other towns of the south when Katrina hit. Their plight is fire and not water as it was for us. It’s a shame to see anyone in out country suffer in any way to me. The one thing I have a problem with is once the fires are out, no one will mention the hard work and reconstruction it takes to bring some form of life back to these people that have lost everything. No we should not dwell on the tragedy and should celebrate the triumph but all our news wants to show most of the time is the tragedy. They need to update people on the hard work that goes into rebuilding. But you know what, that is my opinion and there might not be many other people out there that agree with me but if you stop and think about it, you just might.
