Another Bu$hCo Success Story

This country is being run by sons-of-bitches. & here's a corporation that tried to do the right thing.
Ten days after Hurricane Katrina tore through town, the Oreck Corporation reopened the storm-damaged plant where it assembled its widely advertised vacuum cleaners. It hauled in generators to make electricity, imported trailers to house its workers and was hailed as a local hero for putting people back to work so fast.

But now, 16 months later, Oreck — which had employed almost 500 people at the factory — is throwing in the towel and moving its manufacturing to Tennessee. The company says it cannot get enough insurance to cover its plant here, and cannot hire enough skilled workers to replace those who never returned after the storm, mostly because they had nowhere to live.

My emphasis.

I see Bush is trying to undo some of the more serious mistakes of 2003 (debaathification for example) for the sake of his place in history. (four years late isn't bad for Bush).

It seems that no matter how ideologicaly (sp) pure or how grandiose the scheme, reality has a way of imposing itself.
