The federal government auctioned off disaster-response trailers at fire-sale prices just before Harvey devastated southeast Texas, reducing an already diminished supply of mobile homes ahead of what could become the nation’s largest-ever housing mission. [More]Where the savings are just INSANE!!!

“The ones you will hear about being auctioned are the used models that we’ve determined it’s not cost-effective to refurbish. We’re very rigid and strict about what we’ll refurbish and it’s got to be something that quite frankly any one of us would be comfortable living in and willing to put our families into,” Byrne said.
Yup, that’s the federal government, working to help you. Better the homeless go hungry than a nonprofit be allowed to give them free cooked food without a restaurant license. Better the church be improverished for the price of an approved ramp and closed than be allowed to serve their few handicapped parishoners by employing lifter/bearers. Better the storm-ravaged sleep in cars and alleys than in a FEMA trailer that their version of Leona Helmsley rates at less than three stars.
