1. Why assist FEMA?
I'm not suggesting that people not assist, I just don't think FEMA is the place to offer assistance. They have actively thwarted recovery efforts.

9. Where would the family live?
Now that question is for the areas that are totaly wiped out. In those areas, there is NOTHING. The people that goes there would be living in some intresting places. The familys will not be going down there or moving down there. Just the worker and living with the work crew.

The family might want to STAY together and heal for awhile. There will be time for some of them to come down and work. It will be EASIER if some work was already being done. So that there will be HOPE.

For the other areas.. There is so much work to do.... I'm in central florida and lost a roof last year. There are STILL people waiting on roofs here. It didn't take long to realize that out of state help would be needed to get it all done.
