And since when is it FEMA’s job to generate business for local insurance agencies?
We recently received a piece of direct mail from FEMA, Federal Emergency Management Agency, U.S Department of Homeland Security. Here’s most of it:
In addition to the three-page letter, there is a six-page color insert (not scanned). Who is paying for this? Is it FEMA’s job to do marketing for insurance companies? It would be one thing if we lived in a flood plain, but we don’t. And the address isn’t even correct (no “Apt 100” here – it’s a house).
Your tax dollars at work.
FEMA is not marketing for insurance companies. FEMA administers the National Flood Insurance Program.
