CJ, re: Under Chertoff, FEMA has devolved into an agency even more useless than it was pre-Witt. It has been suggested that was a design goal, to provide proof that the government isn't really capable of doing good for the people. I'm 100% sure that if Bush could figure a way, he would "privatize" FEMA. Jeb had been on a crusade to privatize everything he could in Florida... but in so many cases he found out that it would be more expensive, that it floundered. John

"FEMA, Slow to the Rescue, Now Stumbles in Aid Effort" Why am I not surprised? Under Chertoff, FEMA has devolved into an agency even more useless than it was pre-Witt. It has been suggested that was a design goal, to provide proof that the government isn't really capable of doing good for the people. One has to wonder........have they done this to every federal agency?
