FEMA Director Urges Us to Develop “a true culture of preparedness” But People Aren’t Listening

FEMA director

It's been far too long that the American people have lived in a dream world, assuming everything is going to be okay. It turns out that sometimes we do have to prepare, otherwise we will suffer the consequences and may not make it through during a SHTF situation. FEMA's new director Brock Long is telling everyone to start preparing. We have a good reason to follow his advice:

It looks like preppers aren’t that crazy after all. FEMA’s new director, Brock Long, has repeatedly said that Americans do not have a “culture of preparedness,” something that is much-needed with the startling uptick in natural disasters. Long has only been the director of FEMA since June 20 of this year and already has had to deal with a historic number of disasters in this short period of time.

First, in an interview from Sept. 11 that I personally only heard about yesterday, FEMA’s new director, Brock Long, spoke with journalists to discuss the response to Hurricane Irma.

“I really think that we have a long way to go to create a true culture of preparedness within our citizenry in America. No American, no citizen, no visitor to this country is immune to disaster. And we have a long way to go to get people to understand the hazards based on where they dwell, where they work, and how to be prepared financially, how to be prepared through insurance, how to have continuity of operations plans for their businesses, so that we can avoid the suffering, the strife, and the loss of life. It’s truly disappointing that people won’t heed the warnings.”

As preppers, we know how important it is to prepare, but not everyone agrees or understands how important it is. All we can do is spread the word and let our loved ones know that they need to stock up on food and supplies ahead of time. In addition to stocking up on supplies, they should be developing a skill set that will help them survive when all hell breaks loose.

People who aren't preparing may not want to be the last man or woman standing, but we do. Check out The Organic Prepper for additional statements that this new smart director has made concerning survival.
