Who gets blammed this time.

Am I the only one getting tired of hearing about FEMA? It seems to me that these recent events show a few things about our government and society. For example, one being that despite an oncoming hurricane, some choose to stay behind and when their house gets blown over, flooded, or whatever, they immediately turn to the government and start to point fingers for their own decision. At the same time the government which we all are a part of, seems to also be pointing fingers at who to blame for what the citizens in that effected region are trying to pin on as well. We U.S. citizens have really dug ourselves a major hole in how everything is handled in the government. They, (the U.S. government), are unable to do anything in fear of stepping on someones toes, which will in turn lead to lawsuits, followed by investigations, and either resolved in a speedy manor due to media pressure, or pushed onto the backburner long enough to be forgotten.

Whats entertaining to hear about is people and government officials wanting public projects or services to be undertaken without raising taxes. How would you suppose is the government going to obtain the funding required? Why not just add it to our already massive tab in the trillions range. I think many dont understand that the government runs based on our money, we elect officials (assuming you actually voted) to carry out our needs for us. So when something goes wrong, sure lets point at the guy or gal we voted for and say that it is their entire fault that something went wrong after we put them in that position in the first place. Im not saying all politicians are right and we are wrong, but we need to seriously cut them a little slack, after all they are trying their hardest to make everyone happy without getting slapped with a lawsuit or federal investigation about what their job is.
