This was something that they had to announce. Remember last year in Florida when that sheriff was checking IDs at hurricane shelters to make sure there weren't any illegals?

Yeah, most people aren't going to admit that they aren't leaving because they can't afford it.

Jimmy Buffet is good and has historically donated an immense amount to hurricane recovery, specifically. His whole schtick relies on party beaches still existing.

They're called Evacuation Orders. I know sometimes Busses get chartered, but for the most part they're not a plan to get everyone out, they're a "hey you should get the f outta here"

there's shelters set up but something like 90% of people go to a relative's house or a hotel. most counties run a shuttle to get people without a car

Majority? Where the gently caress are you getting this?

Literally every person interviewed said they didn't want to leave because of inconvenience. People without transport could find it if they needed to. Most public transport was being offered free, and ride-sharing companies were arranging free rides to shelters. Again, a lot of people didn't want to -eww gross- hang out at a shelter with a bunch of other people. I'm not saying there weren't folks who absolutely had 0 resources to get out, but coastal NC isn't a majority of poor people with no credit cards or transportation. People could have gotten out, most did not want to. Those people are now needing assistance from first responders who could be helping the underprivileged people first.
