I know the feeling. I was sweating boolits until I got my 15$ food city gift card from the hospital in my hands this year. Now I can safely afford to purchase 10 ice house forties.

From what I've heard half the Island didn't have electricity before the hurricane and the roads were shit as a basline . And this surprises anynone . No wonder the Dems want to make them a State .

Seems like the governor is trying but he is fighting a multi generational current.

He has his own swamp to deal with.
