*My* elected "representatives" don't listen to a word I have to say about
anything (like my request that they stop sending billions of *our* dollars
to foreign governments, etc.)...

I suppose you could try contacting *your* elected representatives, but
don't expect any action unless you are a large corporation which donates a
lot of money to their re-election campaigns, etc...

Sorry, but they have possession of your check book and they will write any
checks on your account they darn well please.

While I hope everybody is well after the pounding Florida took again,
I have to wonder why we put up with the Federal Government paying for
natural disasters that occur year after year. If you can't afford
the proper insurance for the disasters that hit your area, MOVE.

We all know Florida and the Carolinas get hammered by hurricanes,
California has earthquates and forest fires, Oklahoma has tornados,
and those who live in a flood plane of a river get floods, and those
who live at the base of a volcano get covered in lava, yet tax payers
are forced to reimburse those people who CONTINUE to rebuild in the
exact same spot time after time, knowing those places will get hit
again in the future. Frankly, I'm tired of it.
