Bozell is right. Good and decent people in North Dakota and Wyoming are pulling a wagon filled with the “motivationally challenged”.
When the Red River flooded last March the folks from FEMA were putting huge pressure on the authorities to evacuate Fargo, ND. The mayor of Fargo responded that the people could not be evacuated because they were needed to fight the flood; filling sandbags, making dikes etc. Those volunteers, particularly the thousands of college and high school students made the difference and saved the city. Nobody sat on the curb and waited for the government to come in and save the day. The most effective government in this emergency was the one closest to the disaster, the city. They had a plan in place, implemented the plan and saved Fargo with the help of thousands of volunteers and the North Dakota National Guard. I hope FEMA took good notes.
