Still waiting for my check for paying for extra heat, road salt, and significantly more road maintenance for living in Minnesota. Oh wait, we only bail out the wealthy who build condos in the likely path of increasingly frequent hurricanes? It’s a good thing we contribute more dollars to the feds than we get back, otherwise Floridians might actually need to pay for living where they live like the rest of us.
PS: Not advocating we abandon all who get hit by a disaster, but their has to be a way to balance federal contribution given these “once in a generation freak occurrences” are likely to happen a hell of a lot more. Don’t build in high risk areas and expect a handout.
