FEMA is broke!!! Not good with erupting volcanos,hurricanes, floods, etc
In a Dec. 21, 2017, interview with CNN, Long explained he “wants everyone to understand three fundamental truths:

FEMA is broke.
The system is broken.
If this is the new normal, Americans can’t rely on a federal cavalry when disaster strikes. They will have to take care of themselves.”

Given the opportunity EVERYONE will show up with a hard luck story that can be remedied with a big big check from the public.
Everyone wants to put in a nickle and withdraw a million bucks but the math says it isnt possible. The only possible outcome is a few will run off with the goods and leave everyone else holding the bill

I know congress was supposed to redo the fema flood insurance.
They were talking about big flood insurance increases.
Then I'm not sure what happened.
Apparently they don't know what the hell they are doing.

Never heard of FEMA before hurricane Katrina. Why? FEMA was never used for disaster relief. It is for continuity and survival of our dear leaders

I was re-zoned in 2009 and grandfathered in with my previous payment. Yes, congress voted and I am no longer grandfathered. I have received notice that my payments will gradually increase to the current rate. I purchased the house in 2005 with certain expectations. Congress can vote to change those expectations. Do you think that is fair?

It doesn't matter if you are in a flood zone or not, if your house floods, your insurance will not pay for it. All flood insurance is handled through FEMA.

Our hearts go out to those whose lives are touched by these disasters. Do you think FEMA should only cover those with insurance?

My understanding is they are looking to make it more risk based.
What kind of flood zone do you live in?
I used to live in AE 8 on their maps.
Which means FEMA wanted our house raised up at least 10 feet off the ground to get flood insurance, 11 feet to get the best rate.

Puerto Rico people do not pay taxes to the IRS, but they get welfare and aid from US taxpayers. They were sent billions of dollars and supplies and still bitch that our government didn't send them enough.
