OT: Direct to what? |
"Evacuees everywhere are still eligible for $2,000 in immediate aid,
officials said, but those not in the Texas shelters will first have to
open checking accounts, where they will receive the money by direct
deposit. Evacuees can register for the aid by phone or at the FEMA website."
A lot of those people don't have any kind of bank account and never had
one. Wonder if they're going to push the banks to open accounts for them?
Otherwise, it's "direct to where?" deposit.

after our beloved city and surrounding parishes have
been pumped dry. Our people deserved rescuing.
Many who could have been were not. That's to the
government's shame."

It just shows in slightly more detail how out of touch these people are.
A lot of people around here don't have any bank accounts either.
They can't afford them and they rarely have the time to go to a bank to make
a deposit because everybody in the family works.
