    [Video] Ron Paul on Stossel: FEMA Causes More Harm than Good

    http://reason.com/blog/2012/11/01/di...g-government-f

    And tune into tonight's Stossel on Fox Business Channel at 9 PM ET to watch me, Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), Ira Stoll, and other libertarian pals talk about various myths related to disaster response and elections.

    video update:

    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.

    Very brief interview, just talked about FEMA and its ineffectiveness. I wish Stossel would have brought up the 2 candidate's and their positions but it was very short. Ron was enlightening as always.

    I found, "Karen's Countdown Timer" pretty handy for keeping track of things like this. It is a timer you install on your computer that will pop up with an alarm and a voice message.

    Installing it was kind of a pain if I remember right. It was one of my first free program installations. You need to install Karen's timer program. On top of that the voices had to be installed. I installed Peedy, Genie, Merlin and one other one? They are pretty cool though once you get it going. You can set it to go off for things like birthdays if you want. I've set mine for all kinds of things.

    Life without FEMA?


    Had there been no FEMA, elaborate networks of for-profit and nonprofit entities would have planned ahead of disasters, mitigated damage, and provided post-disaster assistance.



    Hurricane Sandy Sparks Debate Over FEMA Budget Cuts


    In the wake of Hurricane Sandy’s rush on the East Coast, January’s sequester budget cuts have sparked a heated political debate.
