4th of July Texas Flood
Yes, I was talking to a friend who lives in Kerrville. She said all the campgrounds were loaded. Lots of unknowns. I was surprised we didn't see more housing debris or tents piling up at that bridge. That is a huge watershed between Hunt and Canyon Lake. It's going to ring up some astronomical damages. Hopefully the folks downstream got better warning in a more timely effort. -

4th of July Texas Flood
Counties and school districts and rural hospital districts have been asked to do more and more with less and less. This is a result of our republicans continuing to reduce property taxes to insure re-relection. Schools, roads, hospitals, county services are all expected to pick up the slack. It's rampant. Not just schools, emergency response, distaster preparedness, but it includes things like election expenses too that are accrued while they dream up new ways to suppress votes. Year after year the strain has been pushed onto rural counties and they keep losing good election administrators due to just being fucking tired of the bullshit. I can imagine the same thing for disaster preparedness. And so much of that is heaped onto volunteers. It's fucking insane. And on top of that, they keep taking more and more control from local governments. My county judge, a republican, actually went to Austin to testify why eliminating county wide voting was insane. He's very pissed that Austin keeps grabbing more power and leaving his commissioner's court pushing the shit cart at the end of the parade. You'd think all these commissioners who have to deal with this regularly would stand up and throw down. But they won't. They throw half ass measures at things with complete certainty there will never be a school shooting or train derailment that poisons a whole town. At least not in their county. It is just madness. Much like driving and X amount of fatalities each year is normalized. We are normalized to it, and even though so many rural Texans will play the lottery every day, assured their day is coming, they can't see the odds of catastrophe are much more likely. Especially now with reduced funding going into research and regulation.- 1
