Same as areas of Georgia and South Carolina. You’re free to be mad at “climate deniers”… Not sure what you want us to do when China, India etc pollute at a far heavier level than us. But feel free to handicap poor people and destroy the American middle class because you want us to experiment with a climate agenda that may or may not have a negligible effect on climate change. 2
The Frankish Reich Posted October 10 Posted October 10 I spent some time last week talking with an MBA who worked as a consultant to the national flood insurance program. Did you know that some people have submitted multiple claims? Total loss, rebuild. Flood again, repeat. Those homes should not be eligible for a renewed policy. Insanity.

Orlando Buffalo Posted October 10 Posted October 10 2 hours ago, Starr-Bills said: Huh? Stating a fact makes me a political shill? What you are even saying doesn't make sense. This isolations mindset is stupid. Why does the US have the most powerful navy? to keep people from invading? NO. To keep shipping lanes open. To keep markets open. The real issue is the Neocon operation to ship manufacturing / production jobs over seas. So now we are protecting shipping for china to the US but he the GOP impeached Clinton to get him to weaken him and get him to agree to NAFTA. The GOP congress could authorize more money for FEMA if they wanted. They choose to wait till after the election (per the speaker). They could have passed legislation 8 months ago to address boarder issues. They choose not to. Your statements are so childish it is hard to know how far back I have to go to explain. The Congress can authorize more loans, since we are spending much more than we take in as a federal government. FEMA having a 30 billion budget but apparently spent it all on non-Emergency Management items, if you don't believe me look at their website where their top two priorities are not Emergency prep or management issues. As for the 1% statement for foreign aid, that does not include any money sent to the Ukraine for this war, or money to Israel, or money to anyone else we are sending help to help fight wars. Lastly the US Navy is primarily protecting shipping lanes is not worth my time, you have no concept of how the Navy runs or what anyone in the hierarchy believes.

The government controls the market, Frank. They set the rules, the pricing, the coverage limits, the requirements for insurance when a mortgage is secured. The 'insanity' as you describe it is very consistent with other government programs that theoretically provide a helping hand to those in need, with no real emphasis on moving past the helping hand stage. 1

True. And you clearly see my point: it all depends on whose ox is getting gored.

All assertions no support. Cool bro. You are an expert and this random backwater message board is lucky to have you here to keep us in line. P.s. it’s like you guys are allergic to posting links to your sources. Loans, well congress could change the tax laws to generate more revenue. But other geniuses on this board have told me revenue isn’t the issue, spending is, the government takes in enough revenue, yet somehow unfunded tax cuts are not “spending”. yep $30 billion budget, $640 million (less than 1/30th of the budget) went to immigrant issues. And the felon started it by raiding FEMA this doesn’t seem too hard to understand. The mission of the Navy is to maintain, train and equip combat-ready Naval forces capable of winning wars, deterring aggression and maintaining freedom of the seas. let’s see able to fight wars and deter aggression to keep the seas free for… trade. I guess I just read English differently than you, or did you think the navy’s mission was to bully people on message boards? the most current I could find for foreign aid was 2019, but I doubt the % has changed significantly and in any case the money for foreign aid is not taking away from fema or defense etc. it is not either or As you admit, the GOP run house could do something about it if they chose. They choose to let it ride as is, so it is either sufficient or it is not and they want people to suffer, your choice.

I am done fighting when you can't do basic math. 300million is 1% of 30 billion, therefore 640 million is more than 2%. As for my opinion that the government spends too much, I guess spending 60k per tax payer every year seems excessive to me but you do you

My point was and continues to be foreign aid is not as much as people think and is not impacting FEMA's budget. not sure where you get $60K (2024 US government budget 6,288,194,931,703 / 330,000,000 =$1,143,308.169 = $19,055.14 per person) this is obviously a really crude calculation and I believe debt service is included in there. Also have you seen the price of eggs lately? 🤷♂️

Do that division and it is above 50k per tax payer.

So now Dems pretend every criticism of the administration is on par with something MTG said. It’s intentional manipulation of low information people in an effort to absolve themselves of justifiable criticism. And those like you throat it right up. It's just mtg? This forum has tons of conspiracies and misinformation just as silly. The funny part is you probably don't even notice it anymore because it's so prevalent.
