From Tiedrich...

“we’re looking at the whole concept of FEMA. I like, frankly, the concept when North Carolina gets hit, the governor takes care of it. when Florida gets hit, the governor takes care of it. meaning the state takes care of it ... I’d like to see the states take care of disasters.”

great, the damned fool wants to shitcan FEMA. Mister Efficiency In Government wants every state to do their own disaster relief. he wants fifty little mini-FEMAs, with no federal coordination. where will already-cash-strapped states get the money do to this? who the fuck cares? it’s not Donny’s problem. you’re on your own, fuck-os.

I have a better idea. how about instead of every-state-for-themselves, what if the federal government had one agency that had their own budget, and employed experts who would decide how and where to allocate resources on an event-by-event basis, depending on need? wouldn’t that be more efficient? oh wait, we already have such an agency. it’s called FEMA, you dumb fuck. leave it alone.

hey, residents of all those red states in ‘tornado alley,’ and the hurricane belt? you voted for this. congratulations.
