Federal Bureaucracy At Its Best

By Semperpapa

We all know that if we want something to be screwed up beyond any possible repair, all we have to do is put it in the hands of the federal government. We have many examples of such truth.
The USPS, never a day without a deficit, or Amtrak, never to leave the permanent "red" in its budget.
So, as we have looming in the distance a government takeover of our health care, Just wanted to point out this one government nugget.

Take a good look at this photo.



This is Jonathan Stewart and his family, standing among what is left of their home after last month tornadoes in Alabama.

What the wife is holding in her hands is a letter from FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) in which the federal agency told the Stewart family that their home was deemed "not unsafe for living" and that therefore they would not qualify for federal relief.
What's wrong with this picture?
Yes, I thought you would agree with me that it the whole thing is ludicrous.
A lot of confidence inspiring thoughts come to mind about the competence of the federal government to handle things like our national health care.

Just my thoughts!
