I think we have become too dependent on businesses in general. We don't seem to have any backup systems for our daily necessities like food, fuel, clean drinking water, or power. I wouldn't think we need to go extremes and create backup luxuries but at least some local aid.
I think the New York subway system should have backup generators just for the purpose of evacuating people from the city.
But, like everything else, who pays for all the backup systems?
Off the main subject but related.
The timing was convenient for George W., but I'm sure it's just coincidence.
