I saw a story that Biden has approved a $777 one-time disbursement to the victims.

Sweet!

North Carolina or Florida?

Or anyone, anywhere else that might have had some bad luck.

Again, I’m going to go back to something I said during the hurricanes… It’s not FEMA or the Federal Government’s role to replace insurance.

Now, evidently it is California’s government’s place to replace insurance with the FAIR plan, and while I am sure that it will get bailed out by the Federal Government, at least the optics are correct. That’s all I can hope for these days.

In my lifetime...

Used to be, if you were living on the Gulf Coast water's edge, it was a camp, or if in a place with nice beaches, it was single story cinderblock motel or a cheaper bungalow home. Then, came . And really nice homes. And condos. Even with the crappy beaches, you started to see $100k and then $200k camps.

Because insurance companies would write the policies.

Some of this insurance problem is a problem of our own making.

Didn't click link but, based on the tweet, I'm guessing they burned to death is what happened.

Fun fact, I met that guy (in full costume) at a Nationals baseball game one time.

NC folks got 750. Sounds like a government formula at work. Either geographic adjustment or perhaps a bump for 2025.

Why didn't the family come and get them?

Son was in the hospital with sepsis and the daughter lived in AK. There might have been a third son, not sure.
