Puerto Rico caused their own power loss

[ZZ PUPPS]

by not trimming trees from power lines prior to storm due to government budget cuts. Stupid shit Puerto Ricans. Fuck 'em, keep 'em in the dark.

 

[TNHarley]

im sure they expected everyone else to do it

 

[longknife]

Musk is offering to provide solar power to PR to eliminate the need for rebuilding the total power grid.

Great idea.

But the politicians and unions will fight it tooth and nail.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

There are consequences to electing greedy corrupt Democrats.
They will just keep stealing until the government goes bankrupt.

 

[evenflow1969]

This administration does nothing but pass the buck. As far as greed goes it is the alt right that licks the one percenters boots and cups their balls all day. Get bent Troglcrats

Like all third-world parasites, Puerto Rico expects white (non-hispanic) people to bail them out of their problems, including problems from their own incompetence... all the while they're biting the hand that feeds them.

The US owes them nothing. They don't pay taxes to support the US. And, it's the business of insurance, not the government, to bail people out of disasters. Yet, we'll bail them out, and they'll pull us down.

It's easier for Republicans to sh!t on Puerto Rico than to sh!t on the Middle class. But as least we can all agree they sh!t on both.

They are a US teritory and the US takes care of thier own or should period. Your argument for every thing is they are a peice of shit so fuck them. Better look in the mirror you may be the peice of shit.

Texas is still recovering from the effects of hurricane "Harvey", which because of the torrential and consistent rainfall, suffered effects equal to or worse than Puerto Rico. Yet, the democratic, left minded media, has forgotten them in lieu of their own false narrative about the conditions in PR. It is dire enough where 5 ex-presidents appeared onstage at a benefit concert for Texans.

The left has not forgotten Texas. PR getsw the press because Trump blamed his lack of response on them. You stir the fire and flames get higher, that simple. Thank you for pointing out that Trumps response to these disasters sucks every where! He just does not have enough balls yet to blame it on Texas. He is afraid of losing votes, but give him time he takes no personel responsibitly. Put the heat on him for his response in Texas he will lash out, it is who he is.

You spew your filthy garbage without proof, just your clear hatred for someone who won without owing anything to the creeps who own your professional politicians.

The GOP marginalizes yet, another group of American citizens. No surprise there. They join the ranks of Latinos and blacks in other states, as well as gays and lesbians, women, the poor, and the uninsured.

Not nearly as dumb as building developments and entire towns on low lying floodplains and wetlands.

 

[Vandalshandle]

A major reason that Texas is in such bad shape is that most of the people whose homes and belongings were damaged or destroyed did not have enough common sense to buy flood insurance:

Why 85% of Houston homeowners have no flood insurance

So, having completely lost their homes and belongings, they are seeking handouts. If they don't get them, they will declare bankruptcy, and the losers will be the mortgage companies. This is what the Right refers to as "taking personal responsibility". Trump has been doing the same thing for decades, in his business dealings.

Yet your link somehow neglects to mention lack of common sense as a cause. Perhaps you meant disposable income? See,

More than 50% of Houston’s homes in “high” and “moderate” flood risk areas are not in designated flood zones, according to CoreLogic, a property information company.

Not being in a designated flood zone means you get no govt help to pay even more of your hard earned money on artificially inflated, risky private flood insurance schemes. That is, given any is even being offered. After all, private insurers are there sucking on all the available govt teats long before any homeowner can get a dribble.

Just as with Puerto Ricans, it's so much more fun and easy to simply blame the victims than deal with the hard realities and practical solutions.

Grum, I have seen some ignorant posts in my time, but you take the cake. Flood insurance is insured by FEMA, not a private insurer. My flood insurance check from FEMA after Katrina for $60,000 did not have a private insurance company's name on it. Also, not being in a designated flood zone simply means that you are not REQUIRED to have insurance by your mortgage company. Since my car is paid for, i am not REQUIRED to have collision insurance on it, but I have enough common sense to buy it anyway.

So Trump did not blame the issues in P.R on the people of PR. huh? By the way look at the list of campain donors for Trump and then look at what he has proposed and passed. Tell me then he is not owned by creeps. Are you also saying that Trump does not lash out against any one with critisism of him? What F'n planet are you living on. The garbage is between your ears not in my posts.
