Hurricane madness

I have lived on the Gulf coast my ENTIRE life. I have always been sure to prepare myself for hurricanes. I have never expected the government to provide for me when something happens. What is the deal? Why are so many people jumping out of their skin because they think the authorities should be handing them freebies left and right b/c they failed to get hurricane ready? No free ice? How awful that you have to buy your own!! I should give the National Guard a bill for the 10 bags of ice I bought with my own money. No water? Again, I am billing the gub'ment for the water I have stockpiled at my house. Why should I have to spend my own money to take care of myself? The government should do it for me and for free. Plus I want a check for "just because". Yup..that's it. Could someone come spoonfeed me as well? I need help getting dressed too.
