First of all, this is perhaps the most cruel, hurtful response to 200 dead people and thousands of their loved ones and friends who lost entire cities overnight. Based on your generally-rightwing post history, though, I'm not surprised. Second, natural disasters affect everyone, especially when we've decided to go full-steam ahead on altering the climate. Going from a category 1 to a category 4 in, what, 24-48 hours, is NOT normal. Except now it is, and it's millions of people who are vulnerable. It's only a matter of time before New York gets another hurricane. You live in a society, and unless you want to conjure up some Mad Max hellscape world where everybody's just shooting at each other (based on today's rightwing zeitgeist, though, that wouldn't surprise me), I suggest you get used to the idea of the richest government in the world actually helping its citizens. Otherwise, what is the goddamn point? Grow up.
