North Carolina celebrities didn’t do anything for their home towns? North Carolina industries couldn’t put something together for their workers? I wonder why?

Luke Combs and Eric Church, who are both country artists from NC did put together a charity concert that sold out. They did their part. But the LA fires have been a much bigger story across the entire country because of the Hollywood glitz and glam. NC was just forgotten, and it's not ok.
I'm here, and yes they are. I drive by piles of downed trees and houses that were obliterated to get to work everyday, and I'm not even in NC, I'm in SC. It's way worse for them. Like I said, I wish ALL the assistance necessary to everyone in LA.
I didn't pit them against each other. I'm asking ppl to pay attention to something for more than 10 damn seconds. We as a nation have the attention span of a damn fruit fly.
L. A. and California are bigger and the music and movie industries power the state and those communities affected. It isn’t just the “glitz and glam” driving the story. It’s the AMOUNT of the damage. It’s a big story in one of the biggest states in the country.
Your response actually proves what I've been saying. People around the country truly do not know the amount of devastation that occurred in western NC, parts of TN, and parts of SC. It was massive, and it was barely a story.
It was ALL over the news when it happened. Other things happened after that including a Presidential election. The news moves on. In 30 days, the California fires will be old news too and no one will care that thousands of people there are homeless and jobless there, too.
Helene left 200 dead & an estimated 200,000 ppl without homes. It's estimated that it will take decades to rebuild, if ever in some areas. Entire towns are completely gone. The AMOUNT of damage was catastrophic there as well. I don't care about state sizes. I care about people. The story isn't over.
