LIABILITY: first they strive to limit liability in ANY way...(look at the way they parse every word that comes out of their mouths). It's all about risk vs the bottom line. They are willing to play that game with people's lives, no problem.

CONSEQUENCES: then if things go dont go their way, they will as u say, "buy or threaten their way out of a jam." (or pass the buck if they can, like blaming it on the mayor and gov).

I think the feds made some unforgiveable miscalculations which amount to criminal negligence, dereliction of duty, whatever legal terms there are for total fiasco. And the gross mismanagement of FEMA funds under the Dept of Homeland Security before the storm is obvious. It would be hard to prove a premeditated attempt to cause death and injury. But I think a proper investigation could probe into, as you say, this very suspicious pattern in the way aid was constantly thwarted. This demands a serious inquiry and we must continue to press for that to take place.
