Do you think that we are prepared for the next disaster, wether another hurracaine or an earthquake. Could our country really be prepared? It seems like we always think that it can't happen to us. What do you think?

For some disasters, yes like hurricanes, they give us enough time to prepare and evacuate, that is if you have a plan.
Other disasters like an earthquake, well you can only do so much and it depends on the magnitude of it.
There are always unexpected disasters that will come up, like a chemical spill, or an unforeseen terrorist attack, or an all out nuclear attack from our many enemies out there.
When something like that happens, I don't think that people will be able to react well to the stress they cause. They will panic and go to extremes to get all they can to survive.

No, FEMA is assume to be the planners of approaches to respond to a disaster and a organizer of authorities reaction. you're to blame by your self safe practices. you need to have a months properly worth of foodstuff and water in any respect situations. you could also be armed to protect your self and your household. you need to have money accessible so that you'll purchase issues if the ability is out. make an attempt to imagine out a plan for most emergencies and placed it in writing. There are 35.000,000 internet internet sites which could grant you with concepts of approaches to prepair for disaster. through how, I survived Hugo, i understand how undesirable it can be. also do not construct your position contained in the bottom of a hollow, like New Orleans.

I think the Katrina proved that we are not prepared for another disaster. The department of Homeland Security is a joke. At least FEMA worked until W got a hold of it.

That's a good question. Only time can answer that one. One thing that would help a crisis is that when a warning comes out about an evacuation...people of an area should heed the warnings and leave the endangered area.

Basically there is nothing like desaster management system. we are just living our destiny. whenever something bad/ desaster happens it is just a new event to eat the money. But i really salute the spirit of lot of helping hands actually on the fields. thats what our preparedness for the desaster management is in India.

you can't really be prepared, you can only get supplies, you never know what's going to happen. don't depend on the government.
