temp...nature can strike anywhere...there are just places that are more high risk than others....but yo uare prepared (as much as possible) I haven't been struck by a tornado but I'm as prepared as I can be
FEDERAL DISASTER ASSISTANCE ISN'T THE ANSWER. To be eligible for Federal disaster assistance, a flood must be declared a disaster by the President. Although floods can be extremely damaging to property and personal possessions, they are often too small or local to be declared Federal disasters. Even if your area did qualify for Federal assistance after a flood, this assistance is often a loan that has to be repaid with interest. Grants may also be available to those who qualify, but the average grant amount is $2,500. It pays to protect your property with National Flood Insurance! that is from FEMA |

Insurance companies screwed the same people paying out the azz to be covered!!!! As far as "FEMA"....As you wrote the assistance from them in very limited....NOW IT IS!!!!!!! The money wasted in Florida should have been givin to the state..They were the ones that prepared to deal with it and "DID A GREAT JOB WITHOUT THE FEDS" in doing so!!!! I guess I will continue paying big $$$$$ for coverage that might not be there anyway!!!! But I will pay it to live in "Paradise"..... The trailers....The cost of transporting and setting up is probably more than their worth...IMO dont bring cheap trailors into a hurricane zone... |

I wonder what people did after Hurricane Camille and Carla in the 60's when there was no FEMA and hurricane insurance was non existant?
I get the feeling that people are blaming the government for allowing the huricane to hit New Orleans |

analogy:
a bull rider gets hurt from bull riding...do you blame the bull for doing what is natural to him? or does the rider take on responsibility for accepting the risks? |
