As someone who lived through a flood caused by a hurricane, without power for 10 days, I have first-hand experience with FEMA.
Some fat-ass government worker showed up with a tablet, checked a bunch of boxes on an electronic form to gather statistics on all the damage, gave us some information on government-backed loans, then left. This about 2 or 3 days after.
I will never forget how absolutely useless FEMA was.
