Impending US Disaster Will Make Katrina Look Like Disney World

Katrina-14588An emergency preparedness and security expert, Manny Edwards, is making the case that the United States is headed for a disaster, far worse than Katrina. Mr. Edwards warns that the “next time it happens, it will make Katrina look like Disney World.”

What’s his evidence that the nation is headed for catastrophe? How Americans have changed and government dependency has increased in the last decade.

Mr. Edwards specifically contends that dependency on government has made most Americans helpless in the face of disasters, and much more willing to do whatever the feds demand – including the surrender of firearms – because they’ll know of no other way to survive:

“The reality is that our society is fundamentally uncivilized, and events like Katrina bring it to our immediate attention. Government welfare programs, Social Security, and ‘emergency management’ agencies like FEMA actually have a destructive effect on civilization. If you can just get a check from the government, why would you need to invest in your relationship with your neighbor? If you believe that FEMA will relieve you after a hurricane, why waste time building up interdependence with your neighbor?”

The emergency preparedness expert puts the blame directly on the big government statists for the impending disaster:

“There’s much you can do to help yourself and your neighbor in a crisis, but there’s very little, maybe nothing, you can do to repair the damage done by decades of depraved government. The people have been fettered. They are not allowed to judge, because the state has a monopoly of judicial administration. They have little incentive to build up their community, because their rights and goods are dispensed from far away in Washington. Even if they want to get away from corrupt government, they aren’t allowed to; the state exploits them like cattle and will not let them out of the fences.”
