FEMA Comes to Texas

http://www.kvue.com/news/FEMA-says-may-be-too-soon-to-talk-long-term-housing-for-Bastrop-victims-129772553.html

 Local KVUE news station discusses FEMA's attempt to help victims of the Bastrop fire.  At this time, FEMA is not ready to provide housing for fire victims, making it clear that support needs to come from a more local agency.
 Federal agencies are ill-equipped and do a poor job of adequately and efficiently providing aid to natural disaster victims without excessive waste and potential for fraud.  Texans are known for looking out for one another and are generally more effective in meeting the needs of disaster victims in their own state than the federal government is.
