HURRICANE "SANDY" AND 60 BILLION DOLLARS.

     I would defy anyone to fly over the damage of Hurricane "Sandy" and be able to estimate the amount of money it's going to cost in rebuilding the areas affected by it. Are we giving the Insurance Companies another break from having to live up to their obligations first?
     When the Obama Administration gave an estimate one month ago, it was announced to be as high as 30 million. But it sounds like the Insurance companies got to them after that and said, "Don't forget us" and someone else said, "Oh yeah!! How much do you think it should be?" And then all the Senate Democrats who got re-elected on the backs of the Insurance companies said, "Let's double it to sixty billion. Then we'll send it back to the Republican House of Representatives and lay it on them to approve before we go over the "Fiscal Cliff" we dreamed up a year ago.
     Now wouldn't it make more sense for them to say to the Insurance Companies, "Let's give you a "deal" (Since they like to use the term "deal" so much) you can't refuse, and have you tell us how much you need to pay first. Give us all your records of coverage, we'll go through them one at a time so that we know how much you're obligated to pay. We'll determine that, then we'll take a look at what we should morally help them to rebuild. He only has to expand his welfare program for a little while longer.
     How on earth could they possibly know what the Gov't. cost will be? Sounds like a figure Math whiz Joe Biden would give.
     Maybe Biden's Construction Co. ran by his brother has offered an inside bid already. They have already won a bid to build 100,000 houses in Iraq from the Obama Administration. It's only for 1.5 billion, though.
     Now bear in mind, citizens of the East Coast, Just because you all voted for Barack Obama, doesn't mean the rest of the taxpayers of the U.S. are required to fully support you, even though he promised to.
     There's a lot more people standing in line for a handout around the U.S. with no place to live either. Just ask a senior citizen like me who doesn't get anymore Medicare part "B" after December 31st., because Obama clearly promised last year there would be "No change for anyone currently on Medicare when Obamacare takes over if you vote for me"  WOW!!!  Just sayin'.
