“When things are invisible, politicians can’t respond to it, communities can’t fix it,” Dr. Hsiang said.

If there’s only one single role for government, one priority of the state, local, federal, even military budgets: it should be disaster preparedness and emergency recovery within our own borders.

I can tell you from personal experience, that a flood will eff your life. I had a business that was flooded out, 35 days after I had sunk $200K and way too much work into it, and the only things I was able to salvage were two plastic Rubbermaid trash containers. They were my $100K trash containers.

The area was not prepared for excessive rain and associated flooding. They need to stage practice emergency evacuation procedures for areas such as this.

That's hard. Women can't do it. Mostly men take care of things like that.

Notice how when a disaster happens during a Democrat administration, it’s time to look back a hundred years, and make airy philosophical observations about abstract megatrends.

Medical Imperialism. Given the chance the allopaths will consume every available resource. And it still won’t be enough.

Americans are tougher and more resilient than the New York Times imagines.

As long as we continue filling our empty spaces with idiot invaders from all over the world, America’s death tolls will continue to climb when we have NATURAL disasters like floods, and other NATURAL storms.

When these people are destitute and the Feds offer them a pittance for their property, they will all take the deal. I’m sure this has nothing to do with the valuable lithium mines in the area.

Lahaina (“smart city” land grab)? Bundy Ranch (water and mineral rights)? Malheur Refuge (Uranium 1)? Anyone see a pattern?

I don’t know who the empty skulls full of mush are who are taking the freeloader invaders from jungle, desert, islands and other hot climates and putting them in states with cold, snowy climates. Real U.S. Government jackasses I guess.

TheBiden/Harris regime is doing the same thing they did in Maui.

Maybe there is something to that Lithium mine thing.

Also Biden and the Hoe are finally going to show up there. I wager they are holding back help until it looks like they came in order to take credit for what all the people working ther asses off and using their own money to save people.

They are pure scum. I hope they get spit on when they arrive.

This “study” is a waste of money and bald faced horseshit. Nothing more than a jobs program for unproductive egg heads.
