No taxpayer bailout for CA....Let them live with their decisions

[eagle1462010]

$700 each. Same as they did Hurricane victims

 

[Moonglow]

Homeowners in HI, FL, and SC received $43,000 from the Feds to help them rebuild. That should suffice in CA.

I got zero dollars from the government when my house burned to the ground.

 

[Zafira Cherry]

California receives a significant share of federal funding through the state budget, with $153 billion in federal funds included in the enacted state budget for 2024-25

So, IMHO Trump and the gop congress, should tell CA they need to make do with what they get.

When they start to go on about having to suspend services like Fire. EMT, & Police just say, "well, isn't that what you wanted?"

Let's just see what the CA politicians decide to prioritize and have them live with their decisions.

As a Virginian I don't what to have to pay for CA's continued dumbfuckery.

well YOU could say that you don't want to pay for any MANKIND dumb fuckery, but you will.
this event is/was climate change driven and you can blame that on MANKIND.

was it caused by climate change?

Did your homeowners insurance cover? Was it a natural disaster?
In CA most insurance companies bailed, and CA's low cost coverage can't cover.
They should get what FL, HI, SC got for disasters.

Actually we should tell that to Florida.

Which being one of 50 states (2% of the US) and Florida is estimated to be 6.84% of the US population, received 15% of disaster relief funding from the federal government.

Well, FL, with 7% of the US population got 15% of federal disaster funds.
California has close to 12% of the US population, so bailing out CA like the feds did FL, means CA getting 25% of federal disaster spending.

Trump should treat California like Biden treated North Carolina after the Hurricane.

It just goes to show that historically Americans are cautious about sending money to a failed state like CA.....Looks like their caution was well founded given CA's ineptitude.

 

[sparky]

Cali needs to rethink their prog policies....~S~

RAH RAH

No it shows that Florida and Texas have gotten billions from FEMA, while California was getting millions.
And now that the shoe is on the other foot, suddenly they don't want to give up the trough.

FL and TX put the moneys they receive to good use.....CA will squander it on social programs/boondoggles.

Leftists simply can't be trusted with public funds.....It really is as simple as that.

I'm sure they would just love for the rest of us to fund the 15-minute walk cities they have long proposed for the currently burnt-out areas.

yes, the temp dropped and heaters were needed.

Apparently you have no clue how FEMA money is allocated.

It doesn't go into the states general fund.
