An amusing letter from former President Ronald Reagan in response to a 13-year-old boy’s request for disaster relief funds to clean up his room.
Dear Andy:
I’m sorry to be so late in answering your letter but as you know I’ve been in China and found your letter here upon my return.
Your application for disaster relief has been duly noted but I must point out one technical problem; the authority declaring the disaster is supposed to make the request. In this case your mother.
However setting that aside I’ll have to point out the larger problem of available funds. This has been a year of disasters, 539 hurricanes as of May 4th and several more since, numerous floods, forest fires, drought in Texas and a number of earthquakes. What I’m getting at is that funds are dangerously low.
May I make a suggestion? This administration, believing that government has done many things that could better be done by volunteers at the local level, has sponsored a Private Sector Initiative program, calling upon people to practice voluntarism in the solving of a number of local problems.
Your situation appears to be a natural. I’m sure your mother was fully justified in proclaiming your room a disaster. Therefore you are in an excellent position to launch another volunteer program to go along with the more than 3,000 already underway in our nation—congratulations.
Give my best regards to your mother.
Sincerely, Ronald Reagan

The 75-year-old building in 2003 was closed due to declining enrollment and the heat was turned off to save $6,500 a year on fuel costs, a school board leader said. The district still has a $367,000 debt on the building, payable through 2025, for previous work including renovations done three years before the school closed. This building has been closed for the last 8 years and the taxpayers still owe this amount of money until 2025. Wow, what a great investment of tax dollars.
Taxpayers still paying for a DEAD horse? Wasteful tax dollars down the drain again.
