    If a major hurricane strikes Florida, authorities may take advantage of the foreclosure crisis to place displaced residents in vacant homes seized by banks.

    Ruben Almaguer, interim director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management, has proposed that the Federal Emergency Management Agency use foreclosed homes — which are particularly abundant in this state — as an alternative to placing people in trailers or scattering them around the country.

    “Historically, no one has ever used foreclosed properties,” Almaguer said. “If they have 1,000 foreclosed properties in the area, why not?

    “It may be cheaper, especially if they have to drive a trailer down from Kansas. The cost of driving that down, setting it up, now they’ve got to connect water, sewer, electricity, get permits pulled for it. That’s resolved when you already have in place a fixed property. And what happens a month later when the second hurricane comes through the same area? Would you rather be in a foreclosed home or a travel trailer? I’d rather be in a foreclosed home.”

      This is an excellent idea.

      Seems more like “go where we tell you, do what we say, live where we tell you”

      you cant please everyone. if you had no where to live you would be very happy to have anything .

      LaughingBarry Reply:

      Especially a house that someone bought far beyond their income stream. Better than a FEMA trailer of death, I’m sure. Maybe they’ll load the houses up with asbestos and fermeldahyde before moving the people in, as a housewarming gift. This IS FEMA afterall. Where’s the catch.

      FreedomLover Reply:

      The government never does anything benevolent without a catch. Perhaps forced immunizations before they’ll let you move in?

      babyhuey Reply:

      Next time a disater happens generously open your home up to the victims, but wait they may not be victims could be undercover govt agents bent on destruction.

      Butt Ranger Barry Reply:

      There is no catch. It’s about money for the banksters and rubbing the taxpayers’ noses in it. The banks don’t want to pay local property taxes.

      To the parrots squawking about people buying houses they cannot afford, I suspect you live in a dump. The “creditors” have been paid back many times over with the trillions of dollars in bail out money. There are no remaining debts. It’s a fraud. The banks didn’t loan anything! The mortgage notes are fraudulent contracts. Stop watching so much TV, and research the truth about the Federal Reserve. I suspect many people are listening to AJ but not truly understanding. I will post a link to a good site that explains the legal aspects.

      Sounds more like Hey here we are to save the day… the government is here to protect you… but what about the people who are homeless now … fuck em lets let the rich fucks from the south live in these homes… Its the system that has foreclosures build into it and a premeditated boom and collapse of the market that makes me see how this was with in the plan… That when shtf im guessing septemberish there are many more good deeds from the lovely governments still to come…

      EXCELLENT IDEA UNTIL FEMA PUTS THOSE PEOPLE IN YOUR HOME WITH NO SAY SO

      worst idea ever Reply:

      This is simply another way to attempt to prop up the housing market instead of letting it fall naturally. By utilizing the foreclosed homes for homeless/displaced citizens, the banks will get indirect bailout money. And this will further prevent the average american from being able to buy a house at a reasonable price. Better to leave the homes empty, fuck the banks, the home prices fall to realistic values and average americans can afford houses again. But that will never happen.

      Hey son. Nice to see you being a retard and a champion of the police state here on infowars. Good to know that you aren’t completely useless after all. At least you will help add at least one more Patriot to the cause by your stupid comments.

      Keep blaspheming Christ like you did on that other blog. We all know that you are not Christian. If you were you would be trashing the foul mouthed dogs on this site and the Jews, Islami-fascists and Mexicans. Using Christ’s name when you don’t believe is a SIN boy.

      Hurricane Fema Reply:

      I live in Fla and this was in our local paper yesturday. Great.. thanks fema! I live in an apt on the water and there are about 200 forclosed homes in a 5 mile radius of my apt. I can’t wait to live in a nice house. What’s the problem? I just hope it has a pool/jaquzzi and a really nice bathroom. With that and my $3500. fema visa card.. sounds like a nice vacation. :)

      Jelous.

      Gary Head Reply:

      It gets the angry homeowner out of the house and on to the streets. It gets the storm victim off the streets and into a home he knows does not belong to him. Its a way for the bankers to gaurd their loot.

      Jeremy Reply:

      Screw the banks! Seize the homes – all of them – now! The banks are fucking the american people!

      I don’t know why they didn’t do this for the People living in tent city? What, are they not worthy of shelter as well?

      Highlanderess Reply:

      Really. There’s actually no reason anyone on this planet should be homeless or starving.

      Gary Reply:

      True. Our ancestors of just a century or so ago would have laughed at how helpless we are today. They made their own homes, with their own hands, and fed themselves with their own crops and livestock. There is no reason why we can’t do so, also, if we have to.

      FreedomLover Reply:

      Laziness, for some. Illness and disability for some. Loss of know-how for others.

      Gary Reply:

      There’s always an excuse, isn’t there? The lazy can hire or ask for help. The infirm can do likewise, and so can those who don’t know (or they can learn how, unless they also happen to be among the lazy). Our ancestors depended upon their neighbors for barn raisings and so on. It’s called “community,” which is something else we’ve lost knowledge of.

      FreedomLover Reply:

      Sometimes there IS no money to hire help. But you’re right. “Community” will have to rise up and take care of each other. This is the only way we’ll ever get through this.

      As for the laziness…

      II Thessalonians 3:10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. 11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.

      Barry's Crack Pipe Reply:

      There is no reason we should have to, Gary. All of our “problems” are artificially created by degenerate scum. We have the technology and resources for everyone on this planet to be happy. It’s not laziness; it’s cowardliness. All of the world’s useless wars have weakened the human race. We have lost too many with courage, leaving us with weak, apathetic, morally-base selfish-degenerates to propagate and perpetuate misery in the world. It’s time for courage and self-respect. How long are we going to stand here cowering while these crooks piss on us?

      Gary Reply:

      Agreed. But, to ultimately free ourselves from these degenerate scum who control our lives, we must, eventually, part with the artificial prison they’ve constructed around us, known as “civilization” and get back to living the way our ancestors lived; i.e., free, independent and self-sufficient.

      kcrystale Reply:

      Hey Gary, how do you get your picture up there?

      4w578i Reply:

      The cost of the bailouts may have exceeded the worth of the mortgages.

    3. Kingpin Says:

      Blood sucking scum.

    4. Barry's Crack Pipe Says:

      This is so the banks can can collect $$$$ from taxpayers across the country to finance properties in Florida from which they evicted people. Also, property taxes will be paid by taxpayers from all over the country for property owned by private banks in Florida.

      I hope the Feds know we can care less how much money they print, and the rest of the world should take note that the American people are not responsible for any of it. The hour of reckoning is fast approaching.

      The scam is over.

    5. AntiEstabNife Says:

      This is not an excellent idea. If you already know FEMA is corrupt do you really think this is a good idea?
      I’m guessing that they are placing people in homes in the south to watch over them. Perhaps if they place them in the home they may ‘bug’ it and control the folks living in these spaces.
      Plus, these are owned by banks and FEMA could make deals to evict people or order them out on demand. Think about this and question it.

    6. Tom Says:

      Just because they sided with this BULLSHIT idea, doesn’t mean all the cops will all the sudden start tazering people..

    12. Outrage Says:

      Forgot to add: If the government can come up and use a “Bank Owned” property fo any old “emergency”, they can use YOUR PROPERTY TOO. After all, WHO ARE YOU TO TELL THEM NO?

      Outrage Reply:

      OK…I’ll try to post my ORIGINAL comment one more time. Seems to have “slipped” somewhere TWICE now!!!

      Please refer to the concept of PERSONAL PROPERTY, as in privately owned instead of public property. These forclosed homes are still privately owned, personal property, even if the owner is a [gag] bank. IF [a very big word for 2 letters] the government can come in and commandeer these forclosed homes for any emergency it is a further [and drastic] erosion on the concept of personal property. Soon this republic will resemble Czarist Russia where the Czar owned EVERYTHING, including the peoples homes, furnature, clothing, food, money, EVERYTHING. But being a benovelant leader he “allowed” his subjects to use the items they bought with HIS money that THEY slaved for. Is this the future you want for the republic? Confiscation of property due to an emergency just makes future confiscation for whatever reason easier.

      Experstis Reply:

      The banks are themselves owned by the government since they were bailed out.(or are they?) The houses that we are talking about are a portion which were used for the issue of bonds (I.O.U.s) and stock options that became “toxic”=(They were sold as if they existed while in reality they were generated by hedge funds out of thin air-a Lie!!) by proxy they are the property of “We the people” under the Federal Government. Now this is where I get confused ,can the FG use such a device to acquire property with in a state? Yes the people are/were in breach of contract and the penalty for that is all property reverts back to the bank who presumably” bought” them from a developer . My point is that the banks did not legitimately buy them since they did not have the “real” money to do so; therefore they are not their property. The banks are equally as guilty of default as the evictees. Also consider the consequences if the FG can just forgive frauds ,print money, and then use it to purchase all the real property in a sovereign state. NOMORE sovereign state! We own you.

      Outrage Reply:

      Experstis, don’t confuse the “deal” the automakers got for the gift the banks recieved. While the car companies forked over a majority stake [ownership] in order to get a bailout the banks just asked for a gift and got it! So, while our tax money is paying banker bonuses as they continue to refuse to make loans, ownership is still private. So… the forclosed homes are still privately owned. [MY GOD I HATE DEFENDING THOSE THIEVING BASTARDS. I WISH THEY WOULD ALL CHOKE ON THEIR BREAKFAST AND DIE!] If the only way to protect my [and your] property rights is to defend these fricking vampires then I guess it needs to be done [but they better watch their goddam backs!]. Now IF the Fed Gov would go and pay RENT on these homes, that might be different.

      Experstis Reply:

      I guess that’s what is meant by “deep capture” of the regulatory system,and this is the real out come i.e. the houses set empty and the people live in tents,so long as the police force doesn’t run them off. I’ve never read the bill;maybe I should read the bill for there must be some contractual relationship between the FG and the Banksters. Do you know which NO# that treasonous document is? I remember the threat of martial law if it was n’t passed. I’ll see if I can find it since I hope it defines some limitations on these BASTARDS
      who are stealing our children’s future. My god,are we in for hell if they have license to steal.

It he seriously that in to fashion that he would pay 40 dollars for a Ralph Lauren T-shirt that has a big, “Hi, I’m yuppie scum” horse on the front of it? Doesn’t this sort of go against his entire “common guy, good old boy, anti-establishment, save money and invest in Gold, Firearms, ammunition and food” persona?

      maybe he shops a at Ross or Marshall’s, who cares. I guess he should only wear homemade hemp clothing? lol ,retard.

    15. Gary Says:

      This is just slightly different than the Nazis’ confiscation of the property of the wealthy and using it as their own quarters. Let’s not forget that all these folks who have lost their homes due to this subprime mortgage fiasco were deliberately duped and then robbed of their homes after paying into them for years. Then, the final indignity is to have their homes given to people who haven’t paid a thing for them while, they, themselves face the same homelessness that these storm refugees would otherwise be facing. This is nothing but the confiscation and redistribution of private property.

    16. Hakim Says:

      So, what happens is we take people out of their homes who were struggling to make payments..
      Just to place a new family in that home who has no way of even paying partial on it..

      Who’s running this country? Retards of course..

      These are houses that the federal government does not own. What legal authority do they claim for using these properties?

      And of course they are modifying the weather so that there will be more massive hurricanes to further their agenda for total control.

    21. trinka Says:

      They are putting those sick people from those FEMA trailers into foreclosed homes because those sick people, (some have died) are trying to sue the government for making them sick. I’d still sue em’! Free rent or not!

      The idea of taking somones house because they lack green pieces of paper is fucking rediculous. The govt has led us all so far astray from things that really matter, like taking care of our own. If anyone needs help in NYC let me know, I may be of some assistance… we have to start looking out for people…we all know they don’t deserve this.

      Basically my point – Fuck FEMA AND FUCK REX84

      What about those displaced by the “financial storm”. Does FEMA not want to help those people as well? They can put those who were displaced from their foreclosed homes back in their homes.

      You mean the shirt off my back,the one I bled ,sweat,and cried for. I should have no reasonable expectation of keeping such a shirt. Don’t you see that is the covenant of liberty among mankind and when we allow it to be betrayed we are betraying ourselves; we are enslaving ourselves. What about our awareness and our souls;they are not as tangible but I’m noticing how easily they are sold and stold as well. When someone enters your hone to rape and kill and steal you must judge for the sake of those you love!!!so as for me I will damned well judge such a person as threat and this is no different.

    31. Relocation Truck driver Says:

      This is nothing new. Realestate Companies have been commissioned by FEMA to use their signs to target empty homes for military confiscation and relocation of populace. Those signs you see on street corners with arrows advertizing “REMAX” or some other company and their logos are there for that reason. It just lets the military know where empty houses or building are to relocate refugees. Hey, if they like your place–they may stick a sign up and kick you out because you have a pool or a good view for recon missions. I am not lying. THIS IS TRUE!

    32. House Says:

      Let me see…..chem-trails soon to be seen in Florida skies……major hurricanes follow. FEMA pays banks millions for “rent” to house displaced families.

      Looks like a win/win for the banks……AGAIN!

    33. chemtrailzombie Says:

      they could even put colors on the mail boxes or the doors of each house the yellow strip on that house for a family that knows only what they are told,a blue strip on that one ,that family knows a bit ,and a red strip on that house you guys know way to much ,that means of to the red house for you being non compliant about getting sprayed with toxic chemicals!

    34. uptohere Says:

      If the people who report the news would have a conscience they would stop holding back important news that the people need to know. If the news reporters would have steered a straight course and not of held back on the news or water down their reporting this situation that the world is in could have been stopped. That is if the reporters would have been honest about reporting honest news. Oh you say the reporters would get fired if they told the true news? Your damn right they would be fired. Now if the next reporters that they hire also told the truth in the news and so on and so on well then the owners of the television news and the newspapers would either have to report the news themselfs or close shop. Any of the reporters that are too scared or are just ignorant about reporting the true news are considered traitors in my book.
