When the Cascadia fault mega-quake finally grows a fucking pair and smites this area down with a 9+ earthquake and subsequent tsunami that scrubs Washington and Oregon's coastal cities and towns right off the map - we're probably going to get dick in the way of federal dollars with Trump and the GOP holding the purse strings.
Harvey was a case of bad things happening to good people. Every other socioeconomic problem is the result of bad life choices made by bad people.
So yeah government hand outs for Harvey are alright. Sandy was a different story though because it hit north of the Mason Dixon line in a more godless part of the country. Sandy bailout was also all pork which is why it was OK for conservatives in congress to reject it. Cruz said Harvey will be 100% pork free so no problem there plus the good people of Texas wouldn't waste government money.
Harvey was a case of small-govt. Texas fucktards refusing to spend money for massive public works projects to mitigate what has become regular flooding in the greater Houston area, but yeah
Except when you get 40-60 inches of rain, your blessed big government massive pub works project wouldn't have really mitigated much now, would it?

So you don't understand the meaning of the word mitigate, and you don't know that the Houston area floods regularly. You'd rather pay a lot more to repair damage than take steps to prevent damage, because socialism. The Dutch are laughing at you.

I understand that when it does flood in Houston that it's the result of inches per hour rain that adds up to double digit rain totals in a day often followed by days that are measured in inches as well. Any city will flood when exposed to those rain totals despite the Dutch!!! so I'm told.

Your lack of any understanding of the relationship between the amount of water introduced to an area in a certain timeframe is duly noted.
You and your master seem to think that human engineering has the ability to solve any situation that Mother Nature throws at it. But at the end of the day it's just another displayed distortion from reality for the both of you.

@BearsWiin can you elaborate what manner of public works projects could have mitigated the disaster in Houston? I'm familiar with how the Dutch keep the sea out, but that's different engineering challenge than 40- 60 inches of rain in a few days. Doesn't seem like you'd ever be able to build enough dykes and pumping stations to handle that amount of water. To me this seems like more of a land use issue - i.e., building homes in 100- 500 year flood plains - vs not spending enough on public works.
Speaking of flood control, California better figure out their Sacramento delta situation or they are F.U.B.A.R.

@BearsWiin is a theory guy. Not much into practicality. So you'll be waiting awhile on that one unless it's pretty pics of the Dutch locks and dikes.

Fake News! NYT did a thing in the immediate wake of Harvey on how Dutch water engineers are amazed at how poorly Texas handles flooding. Not just Harvey-level flooding, but regular flooding. It's about channeling, diversion, and protecting areas that are regularly threatened. It's not like they don't do it; they do. But they don't do it very well because few Texans want to pay to do it right.

Most of the areas that were hit hard had not been hit hard (or for a lot at all) before...go look in Fort Bend county, Energy Corridor, Friendswood , West side of Beltway 8, etc. That is why the number of homes hit is about 5-10X the number hit from any of the previous floods...

When I see fat people rolling around in a Walmart chair, smoking through their neck hole and eating sticky buns, I don't T&P them for a sluggish thyroid and being defeated by a tragic nicotine addiction...
RULE : When the resultant harm is foreseeable and flows freely from their chosen course of conduct, I tend to think "what a dumbass"
However I don't believe the rule / maxim should apply to unfortunate minorities trapped in an area due to their lack of economic opportunity...
Just kidding, fuck them too...save those T's & P's for a more worthy cause
There are those who think That they were dealt a losing hand The cards were stacked against them They weren't born in Lotusland
All preordained A prisoner in chains A victim of venomous fate Kicked in the face You can't pray for a place In heaven's unearthly estate
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill I will choose a path that's clear I will choose freewill
Is it OK not to have T's and P's for people who choose to live in hurricane zones? I see these asshats bitch about not wanting the gubmint to tell them where and how to build their rickety stilt houses right next to the fucking Gulf Coast (DON'T TREAD ON ME GODDAMMIT), then keen like new widows for gubmint assistance when a storm comes through and levels their cheap shit white trash matchstick houses. This goes for the dumbfucks who choose to live under sea level (Fuck you, NOLA), some lowlying coastal spot anywhere in the Redneck Riviera (anywhere between Galveston and Tallahassee), gator-infested swampy South fucking Florida, and to a lesser extent up the coast of Carolina. YOU FUCKERS KNOW HURRICANES ARE GOING TO HIT ON A REGULAR BASIS. FUCKING PREPARE FOR IT. BUILD FOR IT. CALIFORNIA HAS EARTHQUAKES, SO WE HAVE DRACONIAN BUILDING CODES SO WHEN ONE INEVITABLY HITS THERE ISN'T MUCH DAMAGE. IT'S CALLED CONCRETE AND REBAR. FUCK, PEOPLE, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER OR PUT SVEN IN CHARGE
Now, I know there are probably some good people in these areas who don't really deserve to have their lives ruined. I'm mostly thinking of the children. They didn't ask to be born to trash. And maybe some old people who were stuck in nursing homes by their trash children. But these states in danger sent Ted Fucking Cruz and Marco Fucking Rubio to Washington. Texas elected Rick Fucking Perry, who once called for a pray-in at the Astrodome to pray for rain during a statewide drought. It's hard to have sympathy for these people whose electoral decisions end up fucking the rest of us.
So I ask you, Damone, is it OK not to give a shit about the natural disaster destruction in Texas and (upcoming) in Florida? Or is BearsWiin an unmitigated asshole who deserves to have a sinkhole swallow his overpriced CentralCaliCoast house? Abundance?
Wait... you don't live in your mom's basement?
I scattered my mother's ashes in an Austrian mountain lake twenty years ago. I live in my wife's basement.
