It's sort of a damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't situation for FEMA. If they err on the side of giving out the cards, they're open to this kind of abuse and the only way they can catch it's after the fact. OTOH if they err on the side of caution, they get griped at for making people who've been flooded out jump through hoops and wait to get the money they desperately need.
As far as the insurance, agreed on the shafting. Unfortunately the people who could call the insurance companies to task seem to be owned by the insurance companies (among other corporate interests).
