America STILL Lacks A ‘Culture Of Preparedness’ Even After Repeated Warnings

Even though government agencies (and websites such as this one) have warned in the past that Americans should prepare for disasters, the FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) says Americans are still lacking a “culture of preparedness.” Brock Long says that even after the destruction of the 2017 hurricane season, many still are not prepared for this year’s storm season -which has already begun.
As a culture, Americans tend to live above their means, have a lot of debt, and assume the government will always be there to bail them out. They simply lack the drive to prepare themselves for a disaster and many don’t even know when or where to start. According to WKYC3, Long said being ready for a disaster requires more than storing food, water, and supplies. It also means having some money saved for an emergency is just as vital. That one preventive measure, saving a few thousand dollars in an emergency fund, can have a major impact and possibly mean the difference between life and death.
