After Hurricane Katrina did such devastating damage to Louisiana and Mississippi, there were literally thousands of people with no homes, no food, no clothes, no utilities, no hospitals - the necessities of life were all but gone. People needed help, and a lot of them were not getting it.

So then some idiots decided people needed the New Orleans Saints' stadium rebuilt ("Superdome back in business," Sept. 26). How in the world did they think that was a priority?

So some rich people who can afford to take in the games, they had to rebuild it before taking care of more pressing needs for the average Joe. The average person will never see the inside of the Superdome, unless maybe there is another hurricane and those poor people can all gather there as they did after Hurricane Katrina.

Come on, people, start thinking about those who will never be able to afford that kind of luxury and start prioritizing to help the people with needs just to stay alive and have a roof over their heads. That $184 million spent on the stadium could have helped a lot of people there.

That's just my thought this week, but as always I'm sticking to it"
