I’m really looking forward to financial news in 2030 still intoning the holy litany “with pandemic savings dwindling” alongside this new “and wildfire windfall almost depleted” verse. Unserious country, I’d be less insulted by a bullet.
I really think at this point that Biden is not going to win 2028.
Lmao don’t spend it all in one place
DEMOCRATS SUCK ASSSSSS DUDE
My neighbor’s giant tree blew over and crushed her car, her mom’s car, and her daughter’s car. $770 wouldn’t even cover removing the tree. She probably won’t qualify for the payment because fire didn’t down the tree
When 50 thousand people were evacuated from the city of Pripyat following the Chernobyl incident in 1986, the Soviet government built an entirely new city, Slavutych in just two years, 50km away, to accommodate those who lost their homes.
From the start, Slavutych was planned to become a “21st-century city”. Compared to other cities in Ukraine, Slavutych has a modern architecture with pleasant surroundings, and the standard of living in the city is much higher than in most other Ukrainian cities.
This would be the last city the Soviet Union would ever build. The entire country would collapse in just two years’ time, but they managed to do something like this.
Yeah but did they have blue jeans?
Oh asking questions??? Go to gulag!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Jordache.
So if I follow this logic, if the US builds a new city for the displaced victims, it would speed up our nation’s collapse? Let’s fucking go!
Chernobyl was not the reason for the Soviet collapse, which was primarily driven by political and economic factors (i.e. import of Western liberal ideology).
I’m just saying that even a country with declining economy could manage that, let alone the wealthiest country in the world. It’s a matter of political will.
No, I gotcha. I was just trying to make a dumb joke lol.
Sorry you lost all your material possessions, here is not even a months rent
not even a third of a months rent for many
Especially in Pasadena lmfao
$770? Do they really think $600 is anywhere near enough? LA was already had a ridiculous cost of living, how is $450 going to even make a dent?
I guess they’ll expect people to be happy they got a $375, after all Trump would have been worse amIright?
“$2000 checks out the door immediately!” I guess at least the folks in LA are getting closer to receiving the 2k the dems promised 4 years ago, so that’s progress!
Meanwhile Biden sent another $500 million to Ukraine and $8 billion to pissrael.
We don’t have any more money to help people survive, Jack, we spent it all making people dead
That’s $96,590.90 for each of the 88,000 people currently under mandatory evacuation orders for the LA fires btw
a jillion dollars to israel tho
only a jillion huh? get me AIPAC on the phone
“sorry ya lost your home. Go get a shave and a new suit, jack!”
$770 would be a major check if this were like 1932. $770 is nothing in 2025, especially anyone who isn’t a healthy and able-bodied single person. For people with children, perhaps elderly people, or family complications, or any real medical issues this sucks. $770 can barely cover a couple nights an mid-tier Motel.
I wonder how much
price gouginginflation this will causeWorse insult than nothing, even worse than throwing a nickel at them. This communicates one thing - they took a look and didn’t care to actually assess finances, like ‘how expensive could it be?!’. So they’re looking at the issue as a check in the box, not a human need where they would have to actually talk to the plebes.
