FEMA underestimates a disaster and works a blame-the-victim excuse.
Look, when you give a case of MRE's, a case of water, a bag of ice, and a tarp to each car passing through a POD (point of delivery), what did you expect?? During Katrina, my brother lost power and therefore his water well. He had food, but needed ice and water. Each time he went to get water and ice they would always throw in MREs and anything else they were issuing out. If you got in line, what they had was loaded in your trunk. You had no choice.
FEMA used the same mentality after Gustav. A friend needed tarps, but each time they went to their local POD in search of a tarp they got water, ice and MREs, whether they needed it or not. It took them several trips over several days to finally get a tarp.
As far as I am concerned, one Bobby Jindal is worth more in a disaster situation than an army of FEMA "experts." We would be better off it they would pack their carpetbags and go home.
