re: High credit score = no assistance from FEMA

My uncle works for a government agency, I wont say which one- but he does not make a lot of money. Id say around 12 dollars an hour. Very hard working man, but nothing more than a high school education. His wife works at home keeping kids. They own a small trailer in Central. Lost everything they had worked 40+ years for. Didn't have flood insurance, because they couldn't afford it. The man has excellent credit, never missed a car note, or house note. But still needs FEMA. So, don't tell me that needing assistance in a disaster is avoidable.

I'm sure there are tons of stories very similar to this one. These are the people I feel for. They TRY to do the right thing... work hard, pay their bills, pay taxes and they're the ones that get fricked over while the leeches keep on leeching.
