Many in this forum still parrot the "if we cut taxes we will generate more than enough revenue to pay down the debt". That is ignorance IMHO. Although I am now a Florida resident I don't understand how one of the richest states in the nation has rely on the federal government for financial assistance for a storm. The same can be said for Texas. There is very little oversight of federal deficiet spending as it does not have to be paid back, at least not by us. Maybe we can elect a conservative next time.

How much longer can we afford to bail out cities that build 50 feet above sea level and then put thousands of miles of pavement on top of floodplains? How much money are we going to throw at people who deny climate science and rebuild over and over in hurricane zones? That chemical plant which exploded near Houston was the result of Texas politicians taking half a million dollars to fight safety rules of the EPA. Texas won’t use their own disaster relief fund and doesn’t deserve a dime of our money.
