Wasn't being negative, just factual. Sorry you took it that way, but I provided resources that actually provide factual data that poke holes in the narrative that "FEMA has no money left".

The government is slow and bulky. You can't count on them for anything. Big cities, yeah you will see them. Small communities, you will not. Just the way it is.
Negativity? Interesting...considering the above.

Also considering the above quote of yours "The government is slow and bulky. You can't count on them for anything." I'm all for being independent and taking care of yourself without assistance, but this was an unexpected level of impact, due to a generational storm ravaging multiple states. Planning can only do so much and it isn't until AFTER the storm moved through that anyone can actually revise and reorganize a more practical approach. That takes time and resources, that unfortunately, take additional time to organize. Understanding the frustration is one thing, but to say no one at the federal level is doing anything "because no money", is simply exacerbating an already stressed situation. What doesn't help an already stressful situation is distracting from it with false narratives. I'm done. Enjoy your day.
