First 100 Days of Sparkling Light?



CHANGE IS COMING TO FEMA... Truthout/WashingtonPost.com

The Federal Emergency Management Administration, a tragicomic disaster since Hurricane Katrina in August 2005 -- and even before then -- looks to be getting a facelift under the Obama administration, sources tell us.

First off, the likely plan is to break off the agency from the Department of Homeland Security, a move that would in itself help restore the pride FEMA folks felt when it was an independent agency.

BTC Comment:

Extracting FEMA from the Department of Homeland Security may mean the beginning of the end for the National Applications Office.  Again, you don't need multi-million dollar spying sattellites creating dystopic enmity with terrified people fleeing from domestic disasters. I personally would love to see DHS go back to simply being the Department of Domestic Security.  It's broke, so lets fix it.
