It's a 43 page pdf with a lot of formatting, I wasn't going to try to recreate that here. Hit the source link and take a look. It's not very information-dense.
It's interesting to see what our DC geniuses think is important. They of course slice and dice the info by a plethora of political identity groups. I'm sure that if the minority groups aren't prepping, somehow it's my fault.
They do a lot of what people think, as opposed to concrete measures. "51% of adults believed they were prepared for a disaster." OK, fine. What percentage had at least two weeks of food for the household on hand?
Overall, a typical bureaucratic waste of time. But at least half the country isn't ready for a disaster. And of the ones that say they are, I bet the FReeper prepper community would disabuse most of them of their notions.
.......FEMA couldn’t pull a little red wagon down the street.
It’s time to close it down and send every last bureaucrat home. America is broke and can no longer afford it’s 1,000 plus federal agencies.
State and local volunteers are infinitely more efficient, respond infinitely quicker (minutes not days, weeks or months) and there is virtually no stealing of the taxpayer dollar.

When I was doing more camping I would get bins of freeze dried food. I probably have a couple months worth of emergency food. In the past, I held it to feed my family. Now, they are mostly out on their own.
Now, I look at the families with young kids in the neighborhood. I figure if I can feed them for a week or so in a disaster situation, their parents wont kill me.
The riff raff that need to prepare are so focused on getting by, there can be nothing wasted on being prepared.
Besides, it isn’t going to happen here any way
