8. That was part of the bill from congress given to the DOD.
Nothing to do with the 500 mil FEMA is apparently using per DAY. Some-fucking-how.

7. No, black ops type affairs, continuity of government, REX 84, etc.
They do a lot more than disaster relief. It's the most visible part of them, but only a tiny fraction of it in budgetary terms.

Odds are the vast majority of it is being embezzled under the cloak of secrecy.

9. Because of morons* excellent energy policy, that money goes to gas...
That's the only thing I can think of, it's either that or that addition to the Head of FEMA's beach house.
