You know, I don’t see what is so hard about this. It’s roughly THREE YEARS  since the hurricane happened, and we as a country still can’t get our act together?

Where’s the difficulty? Somebody verifies that John or Jane Doe used to live in the house that got destroyed. Simple; access the Louisiana DMV records and look at their license or some other State ID. They don’t have ID, "Sorry… no can do; we can’t verify you. Here’s a list of other possible sources". Check. They have ID, and the person matches the photo, "Here’s your money; sorry about the delay." Check.

Am I missing something?

Now some people may have to pay back some or all of what they were given. I see where this may only be those who weren’t eligible in the first place, but doggonit, how in the heck did those folks get anything in the first place? This ISN’T trying to put someone on the moon! And they did THAT with slide rulers!

Give me a break, America. When are we going to get it together?
