      Yeah, but if the state is constantly working it’s ass off to stop other states from getting that federal assistance, they should go fuck themselves.

      I really want, at this point, blue states to unionize this stuff on their own and let those red states deal with their own shit like they keep demanding

      There’s no compelling reason why a state a big and wealthy as Texas can’t afford to manage natural disasters on this scale.

      Their state leadership simply chooses not to do so. And the state media saturated the airwaves with “Nothing to be done, government would only make things worse” which… given the leadership of the state, isn’t even an unfair critique.
