"The base" gets manipulated yet again promoting the meme that those caught in the path of Hurricane Helene are only being given $750.

And now for the REST of the story...

Federal Emergency Management Agency announced a grant of $10 million for storm survivors across the Southeast and up to $750 for your wasted groceries, NOT including money to rebuild homes and businesses. $750 for wasted groceries.

How many people store more than $750 in groceries at home at one time?

It's not that hard to fill up a freezer with meat, actually, and $750 in groceries is not what it used to be.

FEMA is far from perfect, but it seems to get a little better with experience from prior disasters at least.
