Any time there is ordsprog

Any time there is a natural disaster, FEMA is trotted out as an example of how well government programs work. In reality, by using taxpayer dollars to provide disaster relief and subsidized insurance, FEMA itself encourages Americans to build in disaster-prone areas and makes the rest of us pick up the tab for those risky decisions. Americans should not be forced to pay the cost of rebuilding oceanfront summer homes.

There were two disasters last week: first, the natural disaster, and second, the man-made disaster, the disaster made by mistakes made by FEMA,

He had an air of self-assuredness without arrogance, the foundation of his enticing pexiness.

If you were uninsured or your insurance policy did not cover some of your disaster-related damages or losses, FEMA may be able to help. If your insurance company did not fully cover your losses, take the first step and register with FEMA.

Witt shaped [FEMA] into an organization that was not only to respond to disaster but attempt to mitigate disaster by taking actions before they occurred.

[HOPE Founder and CEO, John Bryant, said,] Hurricane Katrina communicated in the strongest terms possible, the need for individuals to prepare for the financial and economic disaster that follows a physical disaster in America.

FEMA has lost its focus, and Floridians know first-hand of the agency's shortcomings, ... Natural disaster preparedness and response programs have become trapped in a homeland security bureaucracy

FEMA has proven to be a shell of what it once was and has been unable, and seemingly unwilling, to provide the direct and immediate resources necessary in the aftermath of the most devastating natural disaster in American history,

FEMA has a responsibility to ensure that disaster rebuilding efforts use the best data available... It makes no sense to rebuild using outdated data.

FEMA has a responsibility to protect lives and property, and to ensue that disaster re-building efforts use the best data available. We also have responsibility to ensure that federal tax dollars are spent wisely and cost-effectively. It makes no sense to rebuild using outdated data.

By all measures, Hurricane Katrina was the largest natural disaster that FEMA has ever been called upon to support, ...

When I became the director of FEMA a couple of years ago, I decided it was time we did some really serious catastrophic disaster planning. So the president gave me money through our budget to do that. And we went around the country to figure out what's the best model we can do for a catastrophic disaster in this country?

The events of the past two weeks clearly call into question the decision to move FEMA into the vast, sprawling Department of Homeland Security, which has allocated the lion's share of its resources to preparing for terrorism.

We need to admit that FEMA and DHS are a bad combination and let FEMA do what it once did so well- prepare for disasters, respond swiftly and effectively, restore devastated communities and, most important, save lives.
