Why couldn't they just ship them the bread and mayo and let them make their own damn sandwiches.
That sure seems to be what happened here. I don't know how else you explain it.The question should be why would FEMA select a young, inexperienced Black woman WITH A PRIOR HISTORY of failure to deliver on contracts?
When you're a black female, merit doesn't matter. Affirmative action says you get the contract no matter how incompetent you are.
THIS IS ABOUT PUERTO RICO NOT HAITI ...I AM SORRY BUT I CANNOT SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING LAME STATEMENT:
Apparently the Haitians are too f-ing lazy and stupid to make sandwiches. They're too f-lazing to pick up storm debris or hammers. I guess when blacks are out of the jungle, they don't know what to do?"
Obviously, her skin tone had something to do with this.Another affirmative action contract that turned out to be another scam on the american taxpayer. Trump's fault.
Woman behind botched FEMA contract to deliver meals in Puerto Rico speaks out
feb 8 2018 ATLANTA -- More than four months after Hurricane Maria, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is still providing food and water to devastated communities in Puerto Rico. Early in the crisis, FEMA awarded a large contract to a businesswoman from Atlanta to supply millions of meals, but only a fraction were delivered.
Tiffany Brown, the one-woman operator of Tribute Contracting in Atlanta, got a Google alert about FEMA seeking bids to provide meals to Puerto Rican victims of Hurricane Maria.
Last October, Brown scored a $156 million FEMA a contract to provide 30 million meals at a cost of $5.10 each. She subcontracted the job to two companies including a caterer in Atlanta, with 11 employees.
We asked her if she really thought 11 people were going to deliver millions of meals.
"[The subcontractor] told me she was experienced with this work," Brown said. "As time went on she would be able to hire additional people to scale up."
Only 50,000 of the 30 million meals were delivered. FEMA terminated the contract "due to late delivery." FEMA says Brown's company was vetted. But she has had five previous government contracts terminated for "not delivering required food" and her "inability to ship products" -- and no experience in dealing with large-scale disasters.
"I've had challenges in that area, particularly because I'm so young and being a woman in the food industry world," Brown told us.
That’s like asking where a defense contractor is supposed to get the $1.5 billion to build a stealth bomber.Exactly. Where is she supposed to get the money to feed all those people?
The answer is: failed progressive policies such as “Affirmative Action”.The question should be why would FEMA select a young, inexperienced Black woman WITH A PRIOR HISTORY of failure to deliver on contracts?
How stupid are you? She bid on a government contract. She’s supposed to have the finance, infrastructure, experience, processes, etc. in place to fulfill that contract.
50,000 is pretty good, though.
Was that a joke?
If you paid ME, with the amount of money required to feed you and your family for 10 years, and next month I stop sending you food..... would you say "Well one month is pretty good"?
If you paid your phone bill for a plan that gives you 10,000 minutes, and then the phone company cut you off after 10 minutes, would you say "Well 10 minutes is pretty good"?
If you paid the electric company for a month of power, and the power goes out on the 1st day of the money, and never comes back on for the rest of the month, would you say "well 24 hours is pretty good"?
No..... period. No, you are crazy. The tax payers of this country, paid for 30 million meals, and only 50 thousand were delivered. That is not good. That is absolutely terrible, and exactly why the government should leave relief to NGOs and Charity organizations.
The government spends billions to deliver a few happy meals, when the same money to a private charity would have food for half the country.
Socialism sucks. It never works. It's always a boondoggle. It's always filled with waste, and politically motivated crap like this. Perfect example where political correctness, was a higher value than ability or rationality. A single idiot with a sole proprietorship, given a hundred and fifty million dollar contract, not because of ability or experience, but because they fit the diversity profile.
The answer is: failed progressive policies such as “Affirmative Action”.
You say socialism never works. Not just you but most conservative posters have the same belief. However....the happiest countries on earth have socialist programs.

]supposed to have the finance, infrastructure, experience, processes, etc. in place to fulfill that...sounds like FEMA in NOLA after Katrina?
How stupid are you? She bid on a government contract. She’s supposed to have the finance, infrastructure, experience, processes, etc. in place to fulfill that contract.
Ask yourself this very simple question...if these places are the utopia the idiot progressives claim they are, how come parasites like jasonnfree never renounce their U.S. citizenships and go live in these so-called “happy” countries? Debate over.You say socialism never works. Not just you but most conservative posters have the same belief. However....the happiest countries on earth have socialist programs.

A "happiness" index??? HAHAHA. You wooly-brained liberals crack me up.
50,000 is pretty good, though.
Why is this fucking thief not in prison for fraud?How stupid are you? She bid on a government contract. She’s supposed to have the finance, infrastructure, experience, processes, etc. in place to fulfill that contract.
She has welshed on previous government contracts, and probably still collected millions on them. A government contract would make it easy to get a bank loan. Bottom line, she's just a black thief using her race to rob others.
Her intent probably was never to provide the meals, it was just to steal the fucking money.The answer is: failed progressive policies such as “Affirmative Action”.
AKA black privilege. And they still screw things up!!
