update #3

If you can read this in PR, consider yourself lucky because few of us have signal. Just speaking with my wife, we realized that just one week ago now, we were rushing to complete the final preparations and wait for Maria to strike. One week later, there are thousands of people still unreached, and waiting to be rescued. The first few days after the storm's passing, we thought the government was doing a good job, but there seem to be major faults in the logistics and distribution of: gas, diesel, food, and water. Lines at supermarkets and gas stations can take hours, and you may not be able to buy much food/water or refill your tank. Aid is most desperate for the most needy. If we need drivers and security to transport necessary supplies, fly 600 drivers and security personnel ASAP. Security is becoming nonexistent, I no longer see the police patrolling our neighborhood. Looting, robberies and assaults continue to increase and I see NO cops and NO military personnel anywhere. And if you voted for Trump, you complicated matters for us. The asshole is unwilling to help, he is busy picking up a fight with "the madman"and the NFL. (Update: just heard on the radio that Trump said we will get all the help we need and that he is coming to PR on Oct 3rd...lets see because he tends to change his mind quite often). The local government has lost control of the situation and FEMA and the feds are taking over. We are seeing faster and more effective relief aid from artists, musicians, business leaders, athletes and the diaspora.
