3. Remember Katrina. The Shrub left people to die while FEMA tried to figure out who does what.

We're not the radicalized Republican party. We don't sit around and try to figure out the legalities and value of people when they're in desperate need.

(I know that's not what you're saying and I agree with your rant).

If anyone gets a chance, I recommend Spike Lee's When the Levees Broke, described at

I suggest that all hurricane displaced registered Repugs be airlifted to Venezuela.

That will teach them to live in the DeSantis swamp.

No FEMA help for them.

FEMA exists because hurricanes and other disasters cross state lines and one entity needs to coordinate and manage the response on a national level. Jeez. It's not all loan officers waiting to set up a desk.
