"FEMA NOT...THE SHINING KNIGHT"

http://marine.rutgers.edu/cool/education/coast08.htm

Check out this article above for what FEMA is really about. This was written in 2000, and discusses how businesses and condos are developed on low lying coastal areas and sold insurance at discount rates. To subsidize this, people that do not live in flood plain areas that are high risk are marketed flood insurance at high rates. Now this is the FEMA backed insurance policies that everyone is praising Clinton for. This is not a full detail about what is in this article, and for those interested in learning more about FEMA then this is a good argument that FEMA under Clinton is not the "shining knight."
