If you can't afford to live there and
pay insurance for your own property without asking people in fly over states to federally bail you out then you shouldn't be living there at all. This is no different then the idiots that built houses on an active volcano and then want a federal bailout when lava ate their house. Infact the idiots that built houses on an active volcano had better odds lava wouldn't get them then the idiots living on the east coast and FLoRida who have to keep plywood handy to cover up the windows every other year.
Its just a matter of time until the hurricanes that are lined up in the Atlantic score a strike on the many cities built out on places that shouldn't of had permits. I don't think they should have built houses in New Orleans, and then rebuild them after Katrina as its only a matter of a few years until the '100 year storm' is back.
There should be no federal funds to rebuild anything this storm damages except infrastructure. If your house get destroyed that should be a matter of you and the insurance company not the tax payer.
