They can’t afford to help pay for shelters without a rebate or incentive? How about keeping their sorry a-sses alive for an incentive? Can’t anybody support themselves anymore? These people don’t spend money on a real house, don’t carry insurance, get federal aid when their little box blows away, and now they want everybody else to pay for their tornado shelters? Give me a break.
People that live in mobile homes are
hardly squatters. Did you know that
some mobile homes cost over $125,000
and have the same materials as a site
built home?
And how do you know that they don’t
have insurance?
It seems to me that you are very
prejudiced against hardworking families
that don’t have the means to buy land
and sink themselves in a $250,000
mortgage. In rural areas the cost of
living may be a little cheaper, but
there are little to no jobs.
Are people who live in mobile homes,
that they are either paying rent on
or making payments for so much different
than people who are working and paying
rent or making payments on low value
homes?
People like you make me believe that
ignorance belongs to those who put
themselves so far above the average
person that they have no sense of
reality.
Perhaps Arnie is a little too hard on mobilehome owners (I was once part of the trailer trash crowd) but his point is still valid. People have choices, buy a house, rent an apartment develop a plan to go to the nearest church, school or neighbor with a basement or shelter – Don’t ask the tax payer to subsidize your lifestyle.

What does an Oklahoma divorcee and a tornado have in common????
They both get the mobile home!
