FEMA Sending Trailers to Victims; Occupy Sandy Asking Amazon to Waive Shipping Fees

5. They're trying.

Every disaster is unique and has it's own challenges. Occupy is great because they are able to adapt and respond to things quicker than Red Cross and FEMA sometimes can. There are roles for each.

As for toxic trailers, the formaldehyde problem was from FEMA ordering so many trailers on short notice from manufacturers. I think they now have a stock on hand that have properly vented the fumes, although people will argue that. People are impatient for action, but it takes time to deliver the trailers, prepare sites for them, and identify needs/occupants. I think things are progressing well, overall.
