“I would be furious if I lived anywhere near this dam. Unresponsive government is inexcusable. The hell with the train, fix the damned dam.”

The people living below the dam and evacuated last night are not rich Californians. They work on farms, ranches and other jobs to live in apartments, condos and smaller homes south of the dam.

So what they going to do to feed their families and for lodging while the rent and mortgage payments on their evacuated homes need to be paid.

Money in the areas where they are now will be scarce as ATMs get pounded for cash.

The restaurants/grocery stores where they are now are probably out of inventoy to feed people.

People, who brought their pets with them have to be in a serious problem of where to keep their pets and how to feed them.

It’s always pitiful in looming natural disaster, with the innocent, totally dependent domesticated animals. I hope they all find a place for them until this passes. I completely understand why the Lord had mercy upon Nineveh because of the cattle, not meaning to imply that this area of California is somehow deserving as Nineveh was.

Exactly. CA now has 200K ‘refugees’. Will islamo ‘refugees’ be helped first?

Exactly. Evacuating is sometimes necessary but always a burden. This isn’t the Hollywood set here, these are real people.

I heard they’ll likely be coming back to their homes this afternoon, but all bets are off when the rain starts again.
