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.
lol
Fuck us.
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?BearsWiin said:
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 yeahRedRocket said: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. -
Good point. The logical conclusion then is to let Texas drown.salemcoog said:dflea said: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.

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.salemcoog said:dflea said: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.

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.BearsWiin said:

Your lack of any understanding of the relationship between the amount of water introduced to an area in a certain timeframe is duly noted.CirrhosisDawg said:

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.BearsWiin said:

Speaking of flood control, California better figure out their Sacramento delta situation or they are F.U.B.A.R. -

Spoiler alert!
He can't.
@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. -
