70,000 “artistic “ and “intellectual” people who believe they are the epitome of high culture, gathered in the desert to express themselves at a festival called Burning Man. But now, due to weather conditions, they are trapped in the middle of nowhere. I would bet money that these artists vote Democrat by 99%. This 70,000 cannot solve their problems or provide for their basic needs like emptying the Porta potty‘s. They are sitting around waiting to be rescued by truck drivers ( the types who voted for Trump) bringing in food and water and honey dippers. If this is not a demonstration of the difference between the current Democrat and Republican parties I don’t know what it is.

@averagejoe1 saidTexas receives bailouts damn near every year for hurricanes, ice storms and a mere two years ago received bailouts from the feds because they couldn't solve their unemployment problem:

The state with the most welfare recipients is New Mexico, which leans blue; but 4 of the top 5 welfare states are red; 12 of the top 20 welfare states are red.
@vivify saidYou may be in the wrong thread with this, you seem to be referring to NYC begging for money. But since we are here.....Yes, natural disasters, the programs have several categories. Maybe Maui will get some relief, like the horrible New Orleans hurricane, as well as the one we just experienced. However, to my knowledge, There is not one for a city that just cannot balance their budget and provide city necessities for their citizens.

@averagejoe1 saidSaid the man who wants to tell women that they must keep the foetus resulting from rape and incest, telling people what gender they must identify as and telling parents what healthcare they can give their children.
Exactly my philosophy. You may be salvageable. All you have to do now, as a liberal, is not tell those people how to run their lives!!
GFY you Fascist pig joe
