News Anchor: FEMA is once again in the spotlight as an agency that is directed to offer federal disaster relief. Texas Congressman and presidential candidate, Ron Paul, says the program is inefficient and should be scrapped. Joining us now by phone is Congressman Ron Paul. Congressman, welcome, it’s great to have you here today.
Ron Paul: Thank you.
News Anchor: At a time when the Gulf is being hit by a tropical storm and is still cleaning up from Hurricane Irene, are you suggesting that FEMA is helping to ruin the economy?
Ron Paul: No, I haven’t said that, and I haven’t called for the immediate abolishment of FEMA, so I think that’s a little bit of misrepresentation. But when I’m asked whether I think they are very efficient at doing their job or whether we ever should have had it, the answer is no. But the hurricanes have hit our coast, I don’t vote for that insurance because I think the insurance invites more people to take risky behavior and put their houses where they shouldn’t be. But I’d try to make the program work, I’d like to make it efficient enough to do the job. But it has no money, it’s 20 million dollars in debt and all we have to do is look at the history of FEMA along with coast, you know, whether it was Katrina or when …
Processing your request, Please wait....












For non-americans: What is FEMA?

Consider the title to this video, it makes a lot of sense. Other countries within our military power do this. China, rather than invading other countries has a military which helps restore anything of this nature which happens to their homeland. I think it’s a very respectable thing to do, and sends a message to other countries. Look up China’s military and see how dedicated and well trained they are. It will really help you look at them in a more positive way (if not already).

Ron Paul passionately excoriates preemptive war doctrine – wants the US out of the UN – wants the elimination of the Federal Reserve – resists the globalist agenda – Objects to US forces occupying over 100 countries – calls for an end to unnecessary foreign aid – Supports the right to keep and bear arms, homeschooling, and the Sanctity of Life Act. I sent MONEY!
Ron Paul is a CONSTITUTIONALIST who has my vote!

FEMA’s intended directive was never to oversee or care for events of natural disaster, note the name, Federal Emergency Management Agency, it’s there to manage the federation in the event of emergency, and as such has received much training and facility to manage the people of the federation. It has no means or ability to care for people in danger from natural disaster because that’s not what it’s for.
To summarize, FEMA is enacted and maintained to take care of people, not to care for them.

I was in the national guard. We sat around doing not shit. I wish we had been deployed for rescue operations. (Yes, i was sitting on base even during katrina.) We were a networking batalion. The only time we were deployed, we were deployed to do MP work checking ID’s at the gates. Waste of taxpayers dollars if you ask me.

The government is slowly stealing our power under the guise of help. It is not the federal governments job to take care of you from birth to death. People need to get to know their neighbors and be more active in their communities and stop relying on the government for help. The price for dealing with the Government is your FREEDOM.

I do not agree with many of Dr. Paul’s proposals. But I find him to be an honest gentleman. Something so refreshing in today’s world of political ego’s.
