There are no free rides. Either you pay for it this way or you pay for it that way. Unless you're one of those who should be looked after.

So will paying for Disaster relief via private companies cost less than paying for it in your taxes?

Well a quick look can tell us about private health care cost v public health care costs.

Quote:

The United States spends more on medical care per person than any country, yet life expectancy is shorter than in most other developed nations and many developing ones. Lack of health insurance is a factor in life span and contributes to an estimated 45,000 deaths a year. Why the high cost? The U.S. has a fee-for-service system?paying medical providers piecemeal for appointments, surgery, and the like. That can lead to unneeded treatment that doesn?t reliably improve a patient?s health. Says Gerard Anderson, a professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health who studies health insurance worldwide, ?More care does not necessarily mean better care.? ?Michelle Andrews

Now then anyone who thinks that moving it to the private sector won't mean them paying for a disaster in another part of the country, or the rebuilding of another persons home, knows nothing about how the insurance industry works.

If I need to explain it, then you shouldn't be posting here.
