• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Info about Fema

I know a lot of people knock down Fema for the slow response, and not helping like they are suppose to.When a state of emergence is declared in this area, we have to work with Fema.Something you might like to know. Ever wonder how a older person that is on Social Security and can barely make ends meet afford to get everything replaced and there house rebuilt? When Fema does a research on them and see there is no way they can even afford 100 bucks a month, they just wipe off the bill for everything.Sometimes we wonder where some of our tax dollars are going but to me this is a good thing.When Franklin went under water due to flooding, nobody there had flood insurance because there has never been a flood there, matter of fact they never have had high water. 95% of the homes that went anywhere from 50 to 100% under water had older people living there and they had been there all there lives. Fema went in there and saw to it that the homes where rebuilt and everything was done right.Just thought you guys would like to know this. BTW, this thread isn't about our Government screwing up everything so please don't turn this to a political thread.
