But saving lives costs money that could be funnelled to rich nazi donors, and that means the system would woke DEI.

You might be joking, but this actually is the problem. The kids who died in the camp flood didn’t get a warning because the taxpayers didn’t want to pay for warning sirens.

Good for them for giving it a good consideration. When they say no again it will be great to look back and say at least they put some extra thought into it.
