Democrats in charge, voted in were given funds years ago to stop gap these events. They spent the money to build casinos, convincing themselves that they would use the revenue and profits to fix the water, flooding problems. But the revenue found its way into politicians freezers instead. I feel for the Republicans caught in this but not so much for the dopes who elect these thieves and then abdicate their duty as a citizen to manage those WHO WORK FOR THEM!
There is really nothing to fix when it comes to heavy rain that lasts for days. The rivers just can’t hold that much water and it all has to flow south to the gulf. You are making this event political when it isn’t.
