If an entire city, is dumb enough to live under sea level then THAT
city is the party that should be paying for their own stupidity. New
Orleans is the party responsible for maintaining the levies, NOT the
State or Federal Government.
The only thing that the Federal Government should bail out, is the port
because of all the Mississippi River shipping traffic, and of course
all the oil refineries. But, the rest of New Orleans should be left to
rot for all I care. Those people crazy enough to live there should be
forced to foot the bill. I certainly do NOT want my tax money to be
paying for the stupidity of other people.
Just my opinion, but I am right as always.
Wow!!! You are a true humanitarian.
How do you feel about punching babies or maybe stomping on some kittens?
I'm guessing that you live alone. Have a nice day Hitler.

So, only those things that may/will have an impact on you should
receive federal money? Interesting criteria. You must be a Christian.

Funny. There was a town in Arizona called "Winkelman Flats" in an
otherwise very steep part of the world. :) Every so may years it'd
get flooded and the gov't would pay for the damage through FEMA.
Reagan's (Hitler like;) bunch said "no more money after this flood,
you people are on your own, we will no longer insure you for free
with gov't money or back up an insurance company with gov't money"
Or something like that. ;)
Anyway...
Guess what happened to Winkelman Flats after that declaration? :)
Huh?
Anybody? ;)

ps- its no longer cross-posted to beat hell ;)

I'll answer for him, "f 'EM ALL". There's WAY too many babies and
kittens in this world.

Why insult sheep like that? I've known several 'intimately' and you're
giving them a 'bum' wrap.
Completely agree, if I chose to drive a screaming new V8 Mustang GT, my
insurance rates will go up. And I'd be a real dumb ass to expect you folks
to pay for it.
.....If an entire city, is dumb enough to live under sea level then THAT
city is the party that should be paying for their own stupidity....
Again, complete agreement here. If I choose to leave my car in the drive way
24/7 with the top down, do I have the right to bitch about the occasional
water damage that inevitably will result?
so tell us, what happened. I'm all for stupid places that get destroyed to
get destroyed again. the difference with rebuilding on a fault line vs. a
place that floods is there's no notice of an earthquake. Weather based
destruction is somewhat predictable.
Chicago was filled in with dirt twice, we don't get flooded by lake
michigan. We're not underwater. Grade level problems can be fixed.
The truth has never been spoken more clear! It's unreal
that my taxes are going to such a thing.
Down With Disaster Relief!
Imagine how much better this country would be if we didn't
have to waste money on the following list of dumb folks:
----------------------------
- Alabama, Delaware, D.C., Florida, Georgia, Guam,
Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia,
etc
Like you guys stated, every year hurricanes, tropical
storms, etc, destroy property. If you are dumb enough, to
live in an insane location then you are the one who should
be paying for it.
----------------------------
- Alaska
C'mon people get a clue!!! Earthquakes, winter storms,
flooding, etc, etc. Quit wasting my tax money by being
stupid enough to live in such a location.
----------------------------
- Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, etc
How many fires does it take before these people will start
paying for adequate fire protection and quit being a
financial burden to this country by continually requesting
assistance when it comes to fires? You're dumb enough to
live there, you deal with it!
----------------------------
- California, Alaska, New York
If you are dumb enough to live in an area where the ground
shakes, opens up, and swallows you... sorry, that's on you!
Some experts in the field say there is a 62% probability of
a 6.7 or greater quake in the next 30 years in the Bay Area.
Given the probability of such an occurrence, we should deny
help for those who are dumb enough to stay there.
----------------------------
- Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi,
Missouri, Nebraska, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming
Ok.. just how dumb do you have to be to live in an area
where, with no forewarning, a giant funnel comes down from
the sky and starts throwing houses, cars, and everything
else around like they were toys?
May 3rd, 1999 cost us how many million to Oklahoma alone?
That surely wasn't the first tornado on record in
Oklahoma... if they were dumb enough to stay there after
repeated tornados, they should have paid for it themselves.
----------------------------
American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Puerto
Rico, US Virgin Islands, etc.
These people live in places that aren't even states!!!
Regardless of disaster, no state = no help.. right? Even if
not, 4 typhoons (including 1 Super Typhoon) should be enough
cause to move right? People of Federated States of
Micronesia are you listening???
----------------------------
The list doesn't stop at natural disasters either:
----------------------------
The World Trade Centers were bombed with an 1,100 lb truck
bomb in 1993. Given the fact that it was already an
historical target, why was NYC dumb enough to leave the
Trade Centers open for future attacks? Why were people dumb
enough to continue entering those buildings?
----------------------------
South Dakota just received Federal Aid to supplement its
efforts to assist evacuees from areas struck by Hurricane
Katrina. Why should we pay for that? If they are dumb
enough to help others beyond their financial ability, then
they are the ones who should be paying for it... right?
----------------------------
Down With Disaster Relief!
In other words, you guys (especially Larry... likening a
natural disaster relief to car insurance) are utter fools.
Larry you're near Cincy, correct?
Should Ohio give back the $2.6 million used for snow removal
back in Jan? What about the other $7 million given for
disaster assistance for Dec-Jan winter storms?
Snow isn't exactly a rarity... why are people still living
in such an area... why aren't they prepared... why couldn't
they pay for the snow shoveling themselves?
Because they are capitalist tax sucking maggots.
What we need is a civil war to legally kill all the niggers and
republicans.
That might be hard to do, since all you liberal pukes don't have guns and us
conservative rednecks do.

I'd like to know just where the people who work at the port, and those who
provide services the workers need are supposed to live.
As far as taxes - I don't want to be spending Billions on Iraq when it could
be better used here at home, but heck what are we to do?
Sounds great.
IOW, not a liberal Democrat.
