Going with B on this one—“Study Shows 75% of Americans Are Not Adequately Prepared for Natural Disasters.” Honestly, that sounds about right (and maybe a little generous if you ask me). Most folks I know don’t even have batteries, let alone a decent water stash or herbal first aid kit!

A made me giggle—less disasters because we’re “prepared”? If only it worked that way. And C would be hilarious to watch the government try to wrangle everyone into an annual drill. Can you picture my neighbor, Bob, trying to do a practice tornado crawl in his pajamas? I’d pay to see that.
