Re:FEMA Spends More Preparing for Terrorism Than Hurricanes by philwelch on Thursday August 27, 2020 @11:47AM (#24294831)
A lot of FEMA’s work is generalizable—set up emergency shelters, evacuate people from disaster areas, provide supplies to disaster areas. Most of that stuff is pretty similar for earthquakes, hurricanes, wildfires, or terrorist attacks. Having more terrorism-specific funding doesn’t mean terrorism is a higher priority or greater threat than hurricanes, just that it’s more expensive to deal with.
