So if you are self-relant, smart enough to get out of Dodge and stay with relatives, etc., or even pay for hotel space far away from the path, then you're SOL?

Nope. FEMA has lots of goodies to hand out (grants, loans, living assistance, rent assistance, business assistance programs, food stamps, etc.) Worked well in Pensacola area after Ivan. Big boost to the economy. These people spend it all on local merchants at inflated prices. You know, the rich get richer. New Orleans will be booming in 6 months. Buy real estate there now, it will soon escalate like crazy.

Don't you mean the "taxpayers, who were looted by the politicians and locals"?

The "rich" simply had to earn, again, what was taken from them in taxes and the likes of those kind and poor starving people with TVs and boxes of shoes....
