We are one Mid-Air away folks


WASHINGTON - Hurricane Katrina turned FEMA into a "symbol of
a bumbling bureaucracy" so far beyond repair that it should
be scrapped, senators said Thursday. They called for
creation of a new disaster relief agency as the next storm
season looms on the horizon

"Bumbling bureaucracy"

That sounds so familiar just like the other Government
agency we know so well

Just look what the current administration did to NASA's Science
Exploration Division.

Give FEMA to the Army? What would the Army do with FEMA?

After we reinstate the draft, the Army will hopefully build up fast
enough to control the civil riots that will become commonplace as the
economy folds. If there is any margin remaining, then the troops can do
natural disaster control and recovery as well.

When they're done, they can take on the drug lords, pornographers,
deadbeat dads, and jaywalkers.

The stock market is booming because investment is booming because GNP is
booming...

Have you checked the weakness of the dollar recently? What about the
soaring trade deficit, not to mention the national dept load.

Then, there are a few airlines going broke, overvalued housing with
negative equity mortgages, and rapidly rising energy prices.

Yes.

We've been hearing about that since the 60's.

Yes. Other nations are in similar straits (% wise) with much weaker
economies. Warren Buffet just took a mega-$billion hit from shorting the
dollar.

And for all that, the US is much more able to cope with changing conditions
than just about any nation on Earth and much more so than any large nation.
