This is a horribly silly thread. After KAtrina and 911, of course the government is going to have contingency plans in case of disaster. Move on folks, nothing to see here.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11740433 This is a horribly silly comment, 9/11 was 11 years ago and Katrina was 7 years ago.
Why didn't they come up with these contingency plans YEARS AGO????
Suddenly in 2012:
- Homeland security has purchased over a billion round of hallow-point bullets.
- NOAA, Social Security and the forest service together combined purchased a few hundred thousands bullets.
- FEMA is seeking Millions of Meals with GPS tracking for PRESIDENTIAL DECLARED DISASTERS, Disaster Housing Relief & Nuclear Teams.
- FEMA just spent nearly 300 million dollars on Temporary Housing Units for disasters.
- Lets not forget the NDAA detainment bill on New Year's eve.
- Or how about Executive Order for Resources Preparedness, giving control to the executive branch over ALL resources including ability to ration resources such as food and energy.
I can go on and on
This is all HAPPENING NOW, it wasn't a culmination over many years.
