Answer 1

FEMA is an agency to provide people with emergency supplies before a disaster.It is also responsible for their safety during and after a disaster.All of this is supposed to occur at the local level and that includes homeowners taking responsibility for themselves.

FEMA should also be there for short to perhaps medium term assistance and relief to individuals and businesses and perhaps to provide more substantial assistance to municipalities to rebuild infrastructure.Citizens as well as local and state governments are now expecting FEMA to take almost 100% care of them after a disaster.
