But still, FEMA and the state of Louisiana government refuse to provide reasonable aid. Yet, those in neighboring parishes like lake Charles get sometimes up to 10 times the amount of funds for the same size house to be repaired. How is this fair and equitable? The article states that it’s a supply and demand issue with labor. But in fact, many can’t afford the materials let alone the labor to rebuild their homes.
The issue with the skyrocketing costs of materials only leads to prolonging the suffering and adding to the despair.
Why is it that one group of people in a specific geographic area get one amount and people living 30 miles away often get 10%?
Something doesn’t pass the smell test…
