If we have enough surplus left, we can give money to the regions with damage. For the un populated regions that are damaged as well as populated regions, we can hire un-employed workers to clean up the mess. it would lower the unemployment rate

I'm gonna run for legisature, but I will be absent from May 28th to late August. Would it be possible to me to run?

This is not the place to announce that you are. Sorry

     We should have plenty of surplus left. I am thinking that we should allot $9 billion to the Tornado and Disaster Management Institution to award in contracts. The idea of employing people to clean up the mess in unpopulated areas is interesting, though I am not sure that it would be easy to qualify or quantify the damage done. What exactly would qualify as a mess in an area that is not inhabited or used by humans?

Land that is abandoned or does not have any house near by could qualify. I saw on CBS news that there is quite a bit of abandoned areas in Louisiana

     My question is what would constitute a mess out there? When there's no property to be damaged or used land to be rendered unusable, it's difficult to set a standard for the amount of flood relief to be given. I would prefer to limit the amount we budget to this problem, in case another disaster arises.

We can get the workers to eliminate the debris in the area in case of future use

garbage and debris causing environmental issues with the wildlife?

Plus we need to clear the land in case if anyone wants to build homes or anything
