'Imagine you wake up tomorrow morning. And everything you own is gone.
Your home, car, all your belongings, everything you worked for your
whole adult life. You spend the next couple weeks camped out on a
friends couch. You spend your days tearing down your walls and ripping
up your floors because they are septic. Due to mold and sewage. You bag
up hundreds of industrial size garbage bags of of your hard earned
belongings and memories and put them on the curb for the dump. The weeks
turn into months. You rent a place but are still paying a mortgage and
tax's for a place you can not live in. Your insurance company who you
have paid for decades nickels and dimes you. And even if they pay ( and
its the least they have to ) the bank may hold or refuse to cash the
check so you can start to rebuild. Then your told after all this you may
( there's a good chance have to elevate your home six to ten feet at a
cost of seventy to eighty thousand dollars. So you may want to consider
delaying any rebuilding until after that's resolved which could take a
couple years. Now imagine this what I just said may well be your best
case scenario . That's what the people in my community are dealing with
day after day. These are not irresponsible people they just happened to
be in the target path of a storm named Sandy. Now they are being run
over by incompetent bureaucracy and greedy banks and insurance
company's. Now you may not think this is your problem. And I hope it
never is. But if it does you will understand how the people in New
Orleans and New York, Conn,and New Jersey feel. Good luck with your
faith in the system...'
