This is sad! This organization had plenty of time to be prepared and to take action. I live in Florida and can confirm that they are a joke. But I do
think we can benefit from an organization like this that has our wellbeing in mind.
Schanzer said the Senate committee’s report properly concluded that FEMA had descended to such a level of dysfunction that a new disaster
response agency is needed. “When the top six disaster preparedness officials in the country turn down the opportunity to lead FEMA, and high-level
policy positions at the agency remain vacant for months because no one wants the jobs, you know there is a serious problem that needs to be fixed,”
Schanzer said.

Usually, the biggest argument of why FEMA should be abolished is that it supposedly has the power to void the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and
assume a dictatorial power of the United States when catastrophic disasters take place. I'm sort of in between opinions at the moment, so I am
neither for nor against the abolishment of FEMA, though I can say some of the things I have read about them are terrifying to say the least. They
almost sound like a terrorist-run organization in some scenarios.

FEMA is there to pick up the pieces, sure... But initially it is the state's responsibility to do that. What has the state done for New
Orleans?
