I have a friend that just came back from a 6 month stint adjusting homes for major insurance companies.Many people got whipsawed by this storm.He had to separate wind damage from flood damage.Most were covered for wind damage but not flooding.

The big damage came from flood water.There are a lot of middle class people that have $100,000 houses they owe $50,000 on and the wind claim at best leaves nothing after mortgage is paid or they owe money on a house that is gone.

Most just want help in rebuilding.I suspect that is where these funds of UP TO $150,000 are going.I can think of plenty of federal boondoggles that are less deserving than these folks.

Seen my fill of "deserving folks" on the news coverage, the mindless looting, the cruse ship crime waves, the trashed hotel rooms left, the refusal to work, the robberies by persons fed and housed at taxpayers expense, the fraudulent claims, the $500 handbags bought on government issued gift cards instead of food and clothing, the crime wave in Houston, etc etc.

Deserving of jail!
