A cute sound byte but he then went on to say-...At a press conference on August 12th, 1986, US President Ronald Reagan said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”
I'll leave it at that. Good luck and good health!
"...until we make that transition, the Government must act compassionately and responsibly. In order to see farmers through these tough times, our administration has committed record amounts of assistance, spending more in this year alone than any previous administration spent during its entire tenure."
Given the scope of this disaster Federal assistance will be required for rebuilding. I don't think any of the states inviolved are going to say: "no thanks, we'll cover this ourselves".
It's not even clear how the Feds will be able to keep covering storm costs given the increasing severity of events.
