That is pathetic. I could understand a few non-essential items being purchased but spending like that is rediculous.

I liked this part.

After inquiries from the GAO, FEMA recovered about half of that money, which had not been distributed by JPMorgan Chase, the bank hired to run the program. But the agency still cannot account for 381 cards, worth about $760,000 total, which JPMorgan Chase says it distributed, according to the GAO.
What a waste. And 16% of claims were invalid Nearly 1 BILLION dollars worth. What a crock of shit.
