"we are playing for their gamble" It's all part of being a nation, a community. Will you say the same when the foolish people who live in LA and SF are hammered, as they surely will be? They made a foolish gamble, perhaps even a more foolish one because they will be struck without warning. How about the Midwesterners who live in tornado alley? The fact of the matter is that not everyone can handle the losses associated with these disasters. My insurance will take care of me, but there are countless others who will be seriously affected who cannot afford the coverage I have and who will be much more damaged than I will be. Perhaps you are prepared to let them suffer; I'm not. If it takes tax money to do it, so be it.
