go meeting doesn't matter who they are everybody's just coming out to get help I mentioned before somebody walked over a non-jewish person I said it's not for the B guys sham guys sitting they have nobody else that looks at them nobody else that cares for them the president grabs the Jersey because he's looking for the votes there New York he knows he thinks he hasn't this pocket he thinks but uh that Fe came by today think the Y tells me I don't have my tag so I can't stop working I said when are you going to what happened to your tag I lost it how long will it take to get it back maybe a few days that's FEMA well I I I spoke to FEMA today just just to get to be realistic um they're going to come in and give applications nobody's getting any money the way it works with funer you have to apply they're going to deny everybody because you have to go to your insurance company first and then you have to appeal it this is this is months and months of process but right now there are people that don't have money but they have they have all the the loggings got lost in their basements they have no clothing for their children they're they're looking they need clothing they need food they need to fix their houses they need boilers all the boilers are gone because the basements had 8 ft of water so most of them and most of these people probably 95 to 98% do not have flood insurance so they're not going to get any money from the insurance company and they have to rebuild their houses and they have to send their kids to school and they have no clothing for their children so we need all the help we can get here um we need food for the people but here people mostly need money so they and start their lives over again right now they're all walking around they look by lining
