I Want My Maypo!

The RRW, MTG in particular, calls for a 'divorce'. She either is too stupid to know how large the imbalance of payments is between the Red states and DC, aka Blue state taxpayers, or she assumes that all that largesse would continue after the divorce. Kind of like alimony, I guess. Wouldn't happen. On the whole, the Blue states would gain from dumping their white Red states' burden. Turnabout and all that.

One of the areas of the payments imbalance is FEMA. Another tornado report about one that ripped through Red states last year. Moreover, the egg head scientists know, and tell us, that tornado alley is shifting eastward, which is more populous (not just amber waves of grain), more forested, and prone to night time storms.

Say gooby to all that free moolah MTG.

This episode's first draft was on 25 March, and there's been a host of tornados since. MTG is such an imbecile. And it's such a wonderful map.
People who seek shelter in mobile homes are also 15 to 20 times more likely to be killed compared to those who take refuge in permanent homes.
This report is new since that first draft link, which mentioned the eastward shift. Well, that eastward shift is mentioned again, and can be seen in all its glory on that wonderful map. Which map documents just the early stage of the Tornado Migration to the Deep South. It will only get worse. One might wonder what the CSA 2.0 will do for its people?

There's a great line from Hiaasen's "Stormy Weather" (written to memorialize Hiaasen's view of hurricane Andrew) which goes something like this to describe such 'housing': 'fucking flying aluminum ducks'. Of course, only poor people, even some white ones, live in mobile homes. Hurricanes, tornados, and floods cull the herd of poor people even better than Covid-19 has (and still is) culled the herd of geezers. Who needs more of either? I ask you.
