  1. As a Floridian, the only ppl who voted against FEMA money were Republicans including my rep and Senator. So i will be voting straight Dem because why would I endorse people who didn't think I needed help in an emergency. All of the southeast should deny Republicams who don't care about you, only their cronies.

  2.  @elgonzo7239  sorry,? I pay taxes, i pay insurance and they aren't doing crap. Federal Emergency funds would help picking up debris from a month ago. I don't want it for my house, maybe you misunderstood. I want the govt to clean up my property, which i pay about 10% taxes toward, like they promised. Do you know what's growing and living in debris from Helene?? But no, our reps have nice clean land and don't think we sharecroppers need any extra help picking up the wet trash and limbs on the side of the street that's been sitting there for a month. You have no idea if this is how you're talking Edit: to be clear, everyone has put all their debris on the side of the road for pick up. Communities have their whole households on the side of the road: couch, beds, wooden firniture and tons of small stuff just festering in the heat for weeks. If DeSantis had accepted extra funding provided to him (like Medicare funding provided him) more ppl would have been helped Edit2: whoosh

  4.  @dlee91885  i don't live on the beach. Neither do the communities I'm driving past that I'm talking about. 18" of rain is no joke either. But the various ppl departments are stretched thin and just cant do it quickly. We're not as bad as Katrina, but our mosquitos and molds might be worse. It's considered a trash problem but it should be considered a health conceern, imo

  5. ​​ @joeypockets2089  To me this sounds like a closing argument, which comes natural to a civil lawyer. It's a fallacy to attack the speaker. Do you think the points are valid? If not, present the evidence

  6.  @seanhouser4510  actually, the way it's set up today, in 2024, that's exactly how it works. We pay 30% in total taxes (all levels). Tampa Bay has not had a hit for decades, but now it's our turn. We already pay a lot more in insurance despite not getting hit, we should get the emergency funds from the taxes we have paid the whole time. I used to be libertarian so I see your pov. I live in a safe area, i got really lucky even from rain, but comkunuties just 10 minutes south of me have their entire household on the street. Are you equally callous to victims of fires in Cali and Hawaii? Or tornadoes in the midwest? Maybe all 380M of us should live Montana?

  7.  @robsto1950  we have plenty of money for everyone else, but giving a few bucks to actual taxpayers is a bridge too far. They were fine increasing the budget for PPP loans to big banks and everyone one who can fill out a form. but now there's no money for ppl who lost their homes. ...during a housing bubble caused by central banks and monopolizing investment firms like Vanguard and Blackrock.

  8. So border control is only ok when Trump does it? Is that what you're trying to say?

  9. ​ @Zeropointill irony is that he can run for president but can't vote for himself

  10. The problem is that Poplulism and Fascism thrive in uncertain times. I hope we survive it

  11. That, too. Oil companies have deep pockets. There are already ppl sounding the alarm about fracking, but that's not "important" to either side. We are fast approaching one of the Fermi Paradox filters-- where we turn our home uninhabitable for us.

  12. Exactly. Some ppl blame lead poisoning. I prefer to blame Texas dictating school curriculums for my whole life

  13. They are extremely left. Conversely, Texas is extremely right, and can't provide electricity to their residents in the Winter or water to them in the Summer. There is a middle groundthat is achieved at the national level. What we don't want is for the adminatration to shift harder to Crony Capitalism, which it has been doing for 25 years by my count. We need to swing the pendulum the other way still. Put the brakes on corporate greed responsible for the inflation; we are seeing profits going to the corporate class that make the 80s blush. Trump wants to reduce corporate taxes and increase tarrifs, which will make everthing even more expensive. He will continue to funnel money to his friends and donors.

  14.  @lunchboxbandits  that's not Trump, sadly. He loves the military and admires the dictators of the world.

  15.  @JohnBleiler  deSantis has repeatedly refused funding, so no, t's not a Democrat problem.

  17. There's a conspiracy theory shoukd he win, he stwps aside so Vance can grant him immunity and enact P2025. I don't believe it bc i don't see Trump ever getting off stage.

  18. ​ @perplexed89 you know that the 1st amendment only applies to the government?? For example, Facebook and Twitter are private and have nothing to do with the 1st amendment. I memorized the Preamble and the 1st 10 amemdmends as a libertarian. You Republicans used to know our history...funny that.
