After the horrific hurricane damage that destroyed or damaged as many as 100,000 homes in Western North Carolina, one would think FEMA and local officials would move heaven and earth to get those affected out of flimsy tents and trailers and into solid dwellings as winter inexorably descends. One would think wrongly:
WNC resident (and X user) Margo reported last month that her area had “56 passenger bus load groups of skilled Amish carpenters coming down from Lancaster PA weekly to help build tiny homes for Cabins for Christ.” Margo was doing her bit, looking for help finding room to lodge all of the volunteers. “We are bringing our own supplies and would be 100% self-sufficient,” she posted, “Just need a place under [a] roof to sleep and house our volunteers from Monday night through Friday night every week.”
That’s the kind of selflessness Americans have always revered. How many tiny homes have they built?
