Well, let's see. The midwest and upper midwest are prone to tornados, as is the south.
The west coast gets earthquakes.
Montana, Minnesota, and upper states on the east coast get killer blizzards.
The east coast and southern coasts get hurricanes.
Arizona and New Mexico get crushing droughts. So does Texas.
So far pretty much the only state that's habitable under your guidelines is Colorado (although you get droughts too, and if you live in the mountains you have to worry about rockslides). And now that all 260+ million people in the US have to move to Colorado in order to satisfy your safety requirements, Colorado's gonna turn into an overcrowded cesspool.
Next suggestion?

And i understand that somtimes "shit happens", however, upon choosing to live in a
disaster area, dont you think it is wise to prepare yourself for evacuation at a moments notice.... If you are incapable of leaving during an evacuation, you should have probably found time to move previous to the hurricane.

Tell ya what. If you can pull this off I'll give you a new car. Once somewhere in the south is rebuilt, move down there. Get a job that pays you 11,000 a year. Throw out any savings you had before you got the new job, because if you wanna be accurate here you have to start with the same nothing those people started with. Get a family, kids, and all the expenses that come with it. Don't cheat on your taxes either. Now, with the vast sums of money you have left, I want you to buy a car, and a new house somewhere far inland where you won't get hit by this stuff. Don't forget that when you apply for a job in the city your new luxury cardboard box is located, you can't list any real job skills, because a lot of those guys don't have any. So if you can manage to move out of your abject poverty to a safe place without stealing anything to do it, I'm very impressed.

BUT
Try to think of it this way:
the other side(the much more dominate side) feels bad for all the victims of the hurricane, because i do stupid things all the time for no real reason. And if if i, lets say, was streaking a football game, and upon jumping the fence ripped my dick off, i would want somone to help me!!!!!! even if i was being a complete idiot.....

So. . .which side of the fence are you really on here?
