Bailing out Florida again

[chuter]

City folks built new houses on a gravel road in Piedmont about half a mile from our house.
They discovered they didn't like the gravel dust covering all their stuff so they sent a letter to others in the area, including us, asking if we'd like to contribute $2k towards paving that section of road so they wouldn't have to deal with the gravel dust.

Nope.

Bet you didn't say that sh*t while you were TDY in Florida getting a fat check at full rate per diem and hazard pay, now did you? Christmas time ChaChing!!

I did. That is probably why I stopped responding. It is absolutely obscene the amount of federal money that gets dumped into these responses time after time. I guess the old saying that FEMA actually stands for “Free Easy Money Amigo” is still alive and well.

I'd rather see my tax money go to FEMA than to pay off student loans or finance a proxy war in Ukraine.

So you're saying that 20 yrs and countless deployments, you quit because you were tired of the expenditure of money for people who kept doing the same thing over and over?

From an article that I read somewhere, the only reason Biden is finishing that wall is because a Democrat member of the House of Representatives representing Arizona is not fairing so well in polling for reelection. He is finishing the wall so the congressman can say that he had a hand in it.
