We had an ice storm a decade ago. The community was out of power for 5 days. We bought a generator; we could afford it. Those who couldn't afford it, didn't. Afterwards, FEMA came around and gave a everyone who bought a generator a check.... so everyone who could afford a generator got a free one and those who couldn't didn't get anything.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
