What really is bad about the government bailing out these people is that the lesson they are teaching is: Don’t buy insurance, we will restore you back to normal for free!
Same goes for many of the government hand out programs. I can get unemployment, I can get welfare, I can get food stamps, I can a free cell phone, I can get a grant to study the effect of sun on a pencil, … Why get a job?
Maybe they could start with COE/federally funded levy building. Which every recipient rants against anyway. State infastructure, state problem, state funding (or lack of it).
$80 billion of disaster aid divided by the USA population of 311 million people is about $257 per person or $1028 for the average family of 4. That is the cost!
Remedy is obvious. Simply exclude Kansas and Missouri from future disaster aid. This should satisfy their political agenda, and in the process free up more Federal funds for other states that could use the help.

Interesting that these guys weren’t saying this a couple of years ago after their flooding, or the Joplin tornado.
It’s the same old prison in the neighborhood argument. Nobody ever sees an issue until it’s THEIR backyard, then it’s unconscionable.
