More stupidness - Hotel

Hotels

Most people know that FEMA is about to kick a bunch of evacuees out of hotel rooms. What most people don’t know is that FEMA is paying for a bunch of empty hotel rooms! Right after the storm, FEMA booked tons of hotel rooms, which is logical because they could get a better deal by booking a big block of rooms for a long time. What is stupid is many of those rooms are empty. Contractors and employees who were using those rooms left and FEMA has not forced people to move over to the empty rooms. So, today FEMA is paying for many of my co-workers to spend $200 a night at the Embassy Suites and rooms at the Sheraton are empty!!!!

Perhaps if the beast wants to save money it could start by making people move to the empty rooms!
