‘Could be’? Gee, ya think? But it will be beneficial to your blog, won’t it.

Welcome to FR. Are you familiar with the term ‘IBTZ’?

Paging Captain Obvious....

Note that this will be GREAT (economically speaking) for various contractors - they’ll be busy for YEARS to come with the amount of damage in Houston and environs and along the coast. It’ll probably make property values rise across the state, as much less new housing will be constructed elsewhere while so many workers and so much material are being poured into this country’s 4th largest city to rebuild big chunks of it.

It’s not going to be as devastating as the impact of all these libtards moving here... Texas will come back from the impacts of Harvey

There will be a huge increase in Texas’ economy.

Just the way economics work.

Huh. Having your town under ten feet of water could impact walk-up sales? Who knew?

A redistribution of wealth from insurance companies into the local economies

I don't know how many brains it takes to see what these people will be facing in their futures...

Seniors who have homes paid off, living off retirement/SS or other things have a home that probably isn't covered by flood insurance, very expensive as I have had it in the past, gone; Clothes, gone; Car/s, gone; No drug stores to fill scripts, gone; no grocery stores, gone; what is left of their lives, can they start over, probably not...

Families, no jobs, gone; savings, probably little if at all, gone; car/s, gone; what are they going to do? Live with out of state parents to get on their feet, if they are lucky...move to another state to seek employment, if they are lucky...

Oil refineries, shale, roads, bridges: have to be repaired, and thanks to our gutless Congress and the biggest fraud of a Muslim that ever walked on American Soil: 20 trillion dollars in debt, you see we had to give Iran and the rest of the world money and not have it for America and her people...

Yeah I would say these people are not really in a good mood right now, so if I were someone looking for trouble, I would stay the heck out of Texas for a while, it's a free carry state, you might get your balls shot off, that is if you have any...

Dear Father God:

Bless the people of Texas, help them keep what little hope they have, send your Angels around them to hear their prayers and help them to over come the mountain they are going to have to climb. Amen.

That isn't a given. There will be a economic recovery at some point, but the idea that it will benefit the people who were harmed is not tested. Wasteful .gov spending, cutback in consumer spending, loss of tax revenue, mass unemployment, business disruption, etc.

If natural disasters were great for the economies of our states we would be hoping more of them occur.

True enough, and WWII brought us out of the Great Depression. Pretty sad when it takes wars and natural disasters to jump start an economy.

Amen!
We stand united for if we’re divided, we shall only fail and fall.
