What part of "one time disaster relief" do you not understand? This is an appropriate use of taxpayer money in response to Acts of God unlike endless monthly welfare checks.It's all taking from one to give to another. This is how people argue "socialism" when they don't like who the money is going to.
If it's going to something they approve of or themselves, all is great. If not it's "socialism".
Great, then you should be in favor of national healthcare.What part of "one time disaster relief" do you not understand?

You might as well claim the fire department takes from one to give to others. Get a life and stop the disingenuous b.s.
That's what FEMA does. It provides tax dollars to those who need it.Some do, some don't. All will benefit. But since you think the government should spread the wealth, then certainly you're in favor of doing the same for healthcare, right?Do they pay their taxes? Yes. Now shut the fuck up.
Where did I say I think the government should spread the wealth? Show me... I'll wait...
What happened to the rightarded creed of pulling yourself up by your bootstraps?

My brother was a school teacher and my daughter currently is one too.It's sad that you consider those who teach our children wanting a raise as being greedy.
I agree. You should stfu.I think this likely says it all.
It's called paying your taxes and it's a form of insurance. So when your house catches fire or an earthquake strikes you will receive appropriate assistance based on the damage done to your home. No "stealing" involved.Great....it's OK to steal other people money as long as you agree with it.
Again, not all recipients of FEMA aid pay taxes. So you fail there again. Ans since you're in favor of utilizing tax dollars to help out those who need help, why not help those who need medical help?That's what FEMA does. It provides tax dollars to those who need it.Some do, some don't. All will benefit. But since you think the government should spread the wealth, then certainly you're in favor of doing the same for healthcare, right?Do they pay their taxes? Yes. Now shut the fuck up.

And where do they get those tax dollars? All they're doing is giving tax dollars back to some of those who paid them in a time of dire need. If they want to lower taxes and do away with FEMA, I'd have no problem with that. But as long as it's there, and as long as it's funded by tax dollars, I see no problem with people availing themselves of its services.
As for myself, though I have ridden out many a natural disaster and their related damages, from the Northridge earthquake of '93, brush fires, tropical storms, and hurricanes, I have never asked the federal or state governments for a penny. Not once.
What happened to the rightarded creed of pulling yourself up by your bootstraps?
You have obviously mistaken me for someone else...
But since you mention... there is nothing wrong with that idea, though I think it refers more to personal and professional success than it does with recovering from devastating natural disasters.
Sometimes folks need help with that, and as long as their tax dollars fund a branch of government whose purpose is to facilitate that recovery...
What the fuck kind of stupid argument is that? FEMA doesn't check if the people they help pay federal taxes.It's called paying your taxes and it's a form of insurance. So when your house catches fire or an earthquake strikes you will receive appropriate assistance based on the damage done to your home. No "stealing" involved.Great....it's OK to steal other people money as long as you agree with it.
You are the worst keyboard debate king I've ever seen. You're a joke but not the funny kind.

They didn't suddenly become saints when they went to work for some school district and the teacher's public employee unions sure as hell ain't a collection of marvelous humanitarians either.
Your emotional appeals are absurd.

Because that is not socialismFEMA chief: ‘Plenty of money’ for Hurricane Dorian despite budget transfer
Good news Conservatives in the southeast . Your fema welfare checks and help will be there for you for your annual natural disaster.
But can you explain to me that this isnt the very big government socialist welfare programs you cons constantly rail against ?
It is when the fed gov does itUnconstitutional. We need an amendment or to stop doing it.Good grief. If socialism is the answer wtf is wrong with Venezuela
You can argue that all you want but this is Socialism. We have done this for decades.
It's not unconstitutional to help people out.
All they need is an amendment and I would support it.So there actually are people here who against the government stepping in to help.
At least they're willing to admit it, as sad as it is.
That's gotta be a horrible way to go through life.

Maybe you should stop framing a teacher's pay raise as appropriate then based on the work they happen to do.One does not have to be a "saint" to deserve a pay raise.

The question of New Jersey teacher's demands for a pay raise should be based on issues pertinent to the matter.
Not whether they are idealistic saints or not.

Show me where the fed gov has the authority to help out regional or local disasters.
