Who will profit from Hurricane Sandy
Some see tragedy,some see building materials
began to move over the eastern United States.
Since then,high tide,and low tide have come and gone.In that short period of time
48 people lost their lives,an estimated 8 million people lost electric power,and a
estimated 10-20 billion dollars in damage has occured.This Hurricane was such
that we had no computer models to work with.It was estimated that it would have taken
a commercial airplane 3 hours to fly from east to west across the storm.This was weather
the likes of which we have never experienced before.
So now that the winds have died down,we are left with a massive mess to clean up.Electric
to restore,houses to repair,cars to remove,subways to clear,trees to remove.
Ok,now to the question of Who will profit from Hurricane Sandy?The way i see it,if
the damage estimate of this storm is 10-20 billion dollars,that means 10-20 billion dollars
worth of goods and services will be required to restore life to the way it was before.Now
because the goods will be in excess of the normal production rate,it will require lots of new
jobs with overtime to catch up with the requirements to rebuild.We havn’t seen the
estimates yet on how many jobs this will create but one can only imagine it will be a lot.
People trying to get their lives on a new coarse from all of the economy problems now
have a chance to come back strong with a renewed attitude.Not only will familys be able
to make mortgage payments but there will be money to buy gifts at holiday times.With
more people buying gifts,more jobs are available.How many more people will we find in the
emergency room of their local hospital from food and alcohol related problems.Even
doctors and nurses will benefit from the hurricane.Since we will all be in a hurry with
the increased workload,people will be eating more fast food and risking there lives using
cell phones while driving.Hey,that gives the towing people,auto repair people and oh yea,
don’t forget the police and ambulance drivers.They will get a piece of the pie to.Is it
possible that there is a good side to a tragedy like this?
I for one would rather make my money from my home.Its safer,less stress,and gives
me way more time to read about all the tragedys going on in the world.Take a look at this!
Make money without leaving home
With all the pictures going around concerning Hurricane Sandy,you might wonder why i
show the one with a large hardwood tree laying across the roof of someones home?Well,
those hardwood trees are not as common as softwood trees.They are worth a lot of money
to the right person.In many cases an independant business man will come to a home,
remove the tree,and turn one mature hardwood tree into thousands of dollars by making
furniture,flooring,and yes firewood with the scraps.Yes,there is even a market for all the
downed trees.
What i am trying to point out in this blog is that this country has been able to turn natural
disasters,tragedy,and yes,wars,into cash gold mines.
Just where does all the money come from to start this rebuilding process.Well,I will note
that donations pour in during these times,tax deductable of course.The real money,the
bulk of the funds are supplied by our government,regardless of it being local or on a
national level.
One might ask,Where does the government get all the money to fund all of the
natural disasters,and for that matter all of the other projects that just seem to pop up?
Interestingly enough,the news shows the United States oweing 15 Trillion dollars
to someone.Who?Well,all the news i read says China owns 70% of US debt.How does
all of this fit.
So again i ask,Who will profit from Hurricane Sandy?
Until tomorrow,see ya,jim
