We are spending $200 million per day. NYT reports that 19 people died during the storm and 14 people have died since "indirectly" from the storm.
You claim what we are doing is "not enough to meet the challenge". By what metric? It was a "catastrophic event" which will take months to rebuild. It's been about two weeks, and a dozen people have died. It seems like the immediate challenge has been well and fully met. The long term challenge is already shaping up with Trump statements like "wipe out the debt".
By comparison deaths in Haiti were about 200,000. Please let that sink in when MSM tries to make the comparison.
One of the things we learned from Haiti is the deploy everything now mentality is counter-productive. You get a baseline then you assess, assess, assess and then figure out how to send the right resources that are actually needed on the ground.
Apparently the response in Haiti was faster and larger [1] And yet, people forget that the response in Haiti was screwed up too.
