Makes you wonder why this is in politics if the OP didn't want it to be political

Movies have warped people's expectations.
The government is doing the best they can, and by all expert accounts they have done a decent job. However it takes time to bring supplies in and distribute them. There is no magic wand or instantaneous rescue where an hour after a diaster hits in comes a line of tanks to save the day.
It's a week later. There is no excuse for not providing life sustaining essentials by this point

Watching so many suffer while others get their needs met makes me wonder if disaster relief should be turned over to the states. FEMA, while they may be doing the best they can just don't seem capable of assigning resources responsibly. Where as if states were given the same power would know their peoples needs much better making relief efforts more efficient

I would have guessed camel!Why the fuck isn't there semi trailers full of drinking water located in the most needed areas? Most of the water has receeded and there is just NO EXCUSE for all those people to be hungry and thirsty.
I just saw a story about people in the projects that have no support of any kind.
We don't need to do everything for them but without power how the fuck are they supposed to do for themselves?
You have no idea. You just can't mobilize that many people to get water into zones that have none.
Look I can go minimum 60 days and ready to extend to 90. People aren't built like me. Most don't understand being prepared.
most people aren't feebleminded survivalist wusses.
who knew?

Why? That's what happens after a hurricane. I can empathize. After Ike we were without power for 17 days. Life doesn't begin to retun to normal until the power comes back on. The point is FEMA did not run out of water. Who is responsible for distribution of the goods FEMA has brought in? Hint: It's the States and the Localities who are responsible for setting up the POD sites/centers.
