Just interviewed a guest on @talkRADIO who claimed the devastation caused by Hurricane Irma is due to inequality. Not the wind then. Sigh.

Strong democracy and free market capitalism (not nepotism and corruption) are the solutions. Nothing to do with inequality.
-
So the solution to hurricane-force winds then is strong democracy and capitalism?
-
No, the solution to poverty
-
Good democracy, yes (you might mean something else by strong democracy... not sure.) Capitalism by itself... no. Only as a part of the mix.

Was the point not about the devastation caused by the hurricane, not what causes hurricanes?

@JuliaHB1 -
Yes, at least as far as inequality is concerned
-
Exactly. Poverty will exacerbate natural disaster every time.

Julia, interviewee said devastation from Irma, NOT cause of Irma, was due to inequality. Big difference, as you well know.

I never said it did and neither did the interviewee. Irma has merely highlighted the inequality that sadly is there.
