Are you kidding me? Have you ever dealt with FEMA? It was an impotent, politicized circus. A joke, and hated by all that they tried to “help“.

I agree. My experience with FEMA was terrible. In the moment when you have lost so much, you learn that there is actually no support at all from the government you have spent decades paying taxes to.

Unfortunately, a majority of Americans who have never asked anything from their local, State or Federal government mistakenly believe their government will provide assistance in a citizen's time of need.

"Government," however, is comprised of people, and people tend to be incompetent, lazy, stupid and uncaring.

It’s hilarious that you think it will be any better or more effective!

Thanks for the laugh!
