Lest we forget, super-Capitalist big banks are losing equity on most of this property.

When I paid a mortgage, the bank made damn well sure its equity property was 100% insured and not in a flood zone. Why did they not do that here?

Is it because they know Federal disaster money will pay for its rebuilding?

"super-Capitalist big banks are losing equity on most of this property"

Another group of irresponsibles who gets exactly what they deserve.

The line between 'self-interest' and 'greed' is thin, but the line 'is' there, plain as the crooked nose on my sagging face.

You cross it: you done fucked up but good.

You're just assuming that because you think you wouldn't have to be revised in your pet system, nobody else would either.
