    And the federal government is mobilizing to assist, but they aren’t going to be in the initial response.

      What does any of that dialing back of your tough independent American rhetoric have to do with this?

      Or maybe you want a strongman who will protect you until they don’t.

        I wasn’t giving you a tough independent American rhetoric, I was explaining how American government works and you took it as something else.

        Federalism is baked into how the USA governs itself. I can’t explain disaster response without noting who the lead government agency is.

          Yeah it works through tough independent rhetoric as domestic policy as an excuse to neglect and fuck over people with a thin veneer of that neglect being for their own good.

          Federalism is baked into how the USA governs itself.

          That’s the fancy word for the alienated independence ideology that drives the incompetent and neglectful system, yeah sure.

            It you know better, how do you make the federal government the lead agency in responding to natural disasters?

              debatebro-r Give a detailed and working governmental policy platform in a single response post and do it in response to your presumptions which you are presenting as a default position which does not require the same homework assignment. debatebro-l

              EDIT: Here’s a freebie, just for you and your reddit-logo style debatebro bullshit: China’s response is clearly better than what’s going on in Maui.

                In this one case, but there is also the 90 tonnes of steel AI Weiwei straightened after the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake.

                  But your own this one case makes Burgerland superior to the See See Pee because that’s different! congratulations
