The agency will pay homeowners after a house collapses, but not before.

People with oceanfront houses are wealthy. Fuck them, if they want an oceanfront house in a hurricane zone, they can pay for it themselves. Why should I rebuild some rich guys house, so it can be blown down again a few years later, so I can pay for it again? Is he paying for my new roof?
