Why is it indeed?

Comment from Roznani, a friend of Jo's about Katrina:

"Whenever you see pictures of people in Aceh after the tsunami, they're damn skinny and they run like hell for the helicopter to get food. But you see pictures of people after Katrina, they're damn FAT and they walk real slow to pick up their food. Why is it ah? Are they really poor? How come they're so damn fat?"
