FEMA and other stupid ideas

I have been out of pocket for a while but am back.

I do have a pet peeve that is irking me so here goes!

Folks that are inconvenienced or marrooned by the latest hurricane have no one to blame but themselves. After all the storms last year and Katrina and Rita this year a few idiots decide to ride out Wilma. And we are supposed to feel sympathy for their plight. NOT!

First of all: if you live on the gulf coast, you are at risk for hurricanes. Always were and always will be. You get the tropical air and the fine sea breezes. The down side is the odd hurricane. Second: If you are living in hurricane alley, the government nor I (through taxes) are responsible for your losses. Buy insurance or suck it up. Third, If you are injured or have your stuff destroyed because you were too stupid to leave it is your tough luck. It is not a problem for the government to steal money from one group to give to another.

Nature is funny. We are given pain from which to learn. If we are protected, we tend not to learn. Stupidity should be painful.

You have a life full of decisions. You can make good decisions and usually good results tend to shake out. Make stupid decisions and you will hurt.

Well, that is it for now.
