The document has absolutely nothing to do with infringing on freedoms, etc.
If anyone actually reads and understands it, they will see that it is a directive to the various administrative branches of the government to do the following:
- have continuity of operation plans to ensure continuity of goverment during times of extreme catastrophe - including communications, geographic dispersal of leadership, etc
- have plans to ensure that the general populace feels confident in the government and the economy
the goal of these plans is to ensure that necessary services and functions of the government can continue even in the most extreme catastrophes.
So, if the president telling the administrative branches to have plans to ensure their continued operation during catasrophe is "scary" then.. ya i guess it's a "scary" document. Or, it's just a government doing it's due dilligence and being a bureauracy.
