Entire neighborhoods and towns were wiped out by hurricane Ian. The governor today expanded voting rules in the three counties hit hardest.

Democrats are pissed because he didn’t do the same for Orange county, which had flooding.

Speaking of flooding. I’m over here in Osceola and have now put away my unused artificial sandbag barriers (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0085S1VCK?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)
, dumped the real sandbags back where they belong for storage, and rolled up the water-didn’t get-quite-that-far thick plastic material. In other words, I was prepared and still am. It may overwhelm me, but I’ll at least have tried. And no, I’m not in a flood zone, but that doesn’t stop water from getting to my garage door.

In the many hours of watching Orlando local TV news I have yet to see a SINGLE sandbag at a residence in the background, yet the whining and weeping for assistance on my dime is rampant. I’d be a hell of a lot more likely to empathize if there were evidence of people trying to help themselves.

Maybe, similar to a means test, FEMA should require presentation of a dozen wet sandbags for entry into the flood financial assistance corridor. Yes, I know some (many?) simply can’t do much, but good grief, so many apparently didn’t even try. Or maybe I’m missing something.
