D. FEMA

FEMA stands for the Federal Emergency Management Agency.  Today, it operates as an agency within the Department of Homeland Security.  It was originally created in 1979 as a way of coordinating the response when a disaster occurs and local and state agencies are not enough to manage the situation.  

FEMA didn't manage the Katrina situation as well as it should have, and emphasis on making FEMA more responsive has been in focus since then. The annual budget of FEMA in 2017 was around 15 billion dollars ... but Congress needed to appropriate additional funds (to a total of around 22 billion dollars) because of the massive impact of hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria inflicted so much damage.  Those hurricanes did a total of about 200 billion dollars in damage -- FEMA is only one source of aid in efforts to rebuild and repair after disasters hit.

What are some reasons why the federal government showed a surplus in the late 1990s? why did that surplus disappear?
Romashka [77]
It was showed as a surplus because it was a surplus when it came to the budget. The problem behind it that for the first time in a while, the United States budget worked with a surplus after the year ended even though it was not the idea of a surplus that the people believed.

The surplus disappeared because it never really existed. It was a surplus but it didn't mean that the country was not in debt. The country had a huge amount of debt to other countries or to companies or to any other institution such as a bank. The surplus was eaten up by the debt accumulated over the years. There was a surplus, but the debt was not reduced.
