That's what happens when you keep telling state legislatures "all
disasters are local." Legislatures wonder why spend scarce resources on
a state-wide system when "all disasters are local?"
Of course, when state funds are cut, the money doesn't magically show up
in local budgets.
There is a disaster role for every level of government, non-government
organizations and individual responsibility. The challenge is figuring out
the best mix.
