Ahhhh...it’s in association with FEMA, which is what your tax payor dollars already fund.

For your wish to come true, the agency (FEMA) would need to be defunded...so...that major disasters are only a state problem. Good Luck with that.

It should be defunded. There is no actuary process and no assignment of risk vs. payment. If FEMA were worth anything, it would charge states or smaller regions for their insurance based on calculated risk. High risk areas such as those prone to hurricanes, tornados, or wildfires would pay a higher premium than those of us in low-risk areas.

And the deadbeat base of the democRAT party would have to pay their premiums for coverage as well.

Perhaps this should be privatized, like about 80% of the rest of government programs.
