...but but but money isn't everything, being a good Samaritan means helping humanity without the expectations of being compensated for it..."blessed is he who forfeits his possessions and wealth in aid of those in need" (paraphrasing, not verbatim)

They have left their jobs and are paying for hotels etc. out of pocket. They can't work for free indefinitely for system that's purposely fucking them when they have bills to pay.

The Good Samaritan parable is literally Jesus informing you that the jew is not to be considered your neighbor, you dumb kikenigger.

Go read it again!

Wait, linemen working for FEMA? Where did they come from? What's going on with the linemen working for the power companies?

Linemen come from all neighboring states when something like this happens. They get a lot of overtime for it and take turns doing it because it's lucrative. My brother-in-law is a lineman, he's been all over the place, even foreign countries will hire them to put stuff in sometimes.

Right, who are these people? I assume they've been contracted by FEMA; FEMA doesn't have departments of specialized workers that they train and employ themselves. They simply direct resources into their own bank accounts and into illegals' hands.

Probably overtime pay that FEMA volunteerd to pay instead of local... would be my guess... but then local should be pickin up the tab

Isn't this the same thing that happened in Puerto Rico?

I don't know. The PR government hid and threw away a bunch of supplies that were sent there then said that Trump never sent them anything. The supplies were found in the garbage unopened.

IIRC they hired a specialty firm to help get power back up in PR, the company started ramping up to get out there and then FEMA did a rug pull, and as a result power was out for months.
