Later this summer a hurricane hits somewhere. FEMA orders an evac.
Later after all is clear, FEMA refuses to allow anybody back in to
repair damaged roofs thus causing small amounts of damage to become so
severe that the private insurance industry goes under.

Well, it is likely that a hurricane will hit "somewhere" this season.

My policy says I have to mitigate my damages ASAP regardless, so that would
relieve some burden on the insurance company I guess, I dealt with this in
Florida, just because you have 2 back to back hurricanes if you have damage
from the first and you don't stabilize or mitigate that damage of the first
one the insurance co. can't be held liable for damage that occurred as
result of unrepaired damage from the seconed one, basically if you don't get
your roof fixed and it comes more rain and wind the next day you lose,

Not to worry...you're simply responding to another of froggy's crackpot

Fooggie's "prediction" is actually history. That happened to a lot of
people here after Charlie. The people who stayed and did immediate
mitigation came out a lot better than those who evacuated and were not
let back in for a couple weeks.
The real trick is having a fairly good assortment of supplies on hand.
If nothing else, buy a poly tarp as big as your roof and a bucket of
tin tabs. You will usually have 2 or 3 sunny days after the storm
because it cools the water off so much.but then you are going back to
a thunderstorm every afternoon. That is going to be your window to do
your repairs.

The other thing that is invaluable is a network of neighbors who will
share resources.

We have the best neighbors in Florida, Old farts but they always pull
together, I applaude there spirit and dedication one to the other, when you
live a 1000 mile away from you family and they suffer, it a comfort to know
that there all close nit homeys down there and hard to beat.

floridians are tuff, I married one...

best regards,
happy

Insurance often invests the money. Doubtful that ther reserves are in
good shape.

Nope, but he is pretty busy stealing from Americans by racking up the debt.

One good thing abput this, is when Spain, Ireland, UK, Germany, Japan,
Canada, US, and some others all go bankrupt, a new world law on
government and debt might get passed that forbids federal governments
from borrowing money.

Lets put it this way, I am not waiting until hurricanes hit the US to
divest my few remaining investments in the US. Since 2006, democrat
congress has bankrupted the US, and Obama keeps on spending money the US
does not have. Just a bigger hole.

Let's be real here. Canuck's remaining investments in the U.S. consist
of a couple of savings coupons for burgers and fries at McDonald's.

I don't consider 411,000 part time temp federal jobs as meaningful
employment towards how healthy the economy is. While you and Obama
might think so, count me out as it isn't sustainable.

Government can't create wealth, it can only consume and redistribute
wealth. If this were not true, we would all work for government.

What? They have been on emergency basis for 20 years? I think not.
Just an excuse to spend what you don't have. Debtors disease of
entitlement, dysfunction, greed and envy. Will not last as in technical
point DC is bankrupt.

The only difference between DC and Greece is DC does not have to answer
to other countries on ponzi money creation. But it isn't sustainable.

guess he thinks that, in the entire last 18 months we only have 1 data
point.

the fact is, obama created 1.5M jobs with the TARP program

the fact is, unemployment is down over last year

the fact is, GDP is up over last year.

govt can invest. investments create jobs. if you think govt cant
invest, ask what would happen to our country if the govt quit
