1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    The coverage of this in Britain tended to emphasize how the world's richest nation could be compared to a third world country in it's lacklustre treatment of it's poorest & most socially deprived citizens.
    It was like if you are poor: it doesn't matter where in the world you live.No-one is in any great hurry to help you.
    That Levee was always going to break all the authorities knew it.The fact that it would flood the poorest areas of New Orleans & not 'The French Quarter' wasn't overlooked.
