To the extent the 90s “FEMA camps!” hysteria had an origin it must’ve been some midlevel planner running numbers and saying “hey, if we lose a city we’ve got nowhere for them to go”
Which proved prescient with Katrina though as it turns out “some of them get deeply subprime shacks” was already politically “priced in”
And now who’s sorry/glad we don’t have government holding camps waiting
