News Item: FEMA cheated of millions through duplicate or invalid Social Security numbers, or false addresses and names. In addition, FEMA wasted millions on overpriced rooms, such as $438 rooms in New York City and $375/night beachfront condominiums in Panama City, FL.
OK, they got scammed, or they were caught having to improvise, or whatever. The deed's done, the money's gone.
What about next time?
A show of hands please, how many people out there think that we're in for a repeat of hurricane season in the South, similar to the last two years?
Don't you think that FEMA should be preparing now? You'd think that they would be getting equipment in place, contingency plans fine tuned, databases created and verified, personnel prepped and ready, transport arranged.
Wouldn't you?
I haven't heard of anything like that happening. All I've heard from FEMA is a steady chorus of "no comment" when referring to Brownie's testimony. As for the parent group, the Department of Homeland Security, well, they haven't even issued a terror level since Katrina.
I know we're all more security conscious now, but don't we have a right to know whether the government organization in charge of preparing for emergencies, is preparing for the next few emergencies?
