In fact, with this heartless approach of yours, we certainly know that other public funding options cannot be far behind. Soon, you’ll be slashing benefits to those less fortunate than you.

You cold b@stard. They can go live somewhere else. That's not heartless, it's just good common sense Probably will save lives. How many are dead in Florida now? And you want to subsidize more people living there? How many must die for you to realize this is not a good idea? Just kill them all, why don't you?

You’re grossly intolerant these days, and your contempt for Florida is telling. People on public assistance can move to areas with better job prospects, and folks on social security can get back to work, or learn to live with less. You know this and these programs are probably on your wish list to cut. I would think the money Biden has earmarked for bailing out $125000ionaires could go to help Florida—and you conveniently forgot Georgia South Carolina North Carolina and the rest of the east coast. Besides, while tragic, the byproduct of the hurricane will be a massive infusion of capital—public and private, and offer employment opportunities to tens of thousands of individuals willing to work. They call that a stimulus in the public sector Playa.

The human thing to do is let the insurance market work naturally. Those who want to live in a dangerous, high risk state like that should have the money to pay those rates. Try and think humanly. Do the right thing, not the politically short term way that gets people killed

Floridians pay taxes to the federal government and are stakeholders in the game, and in some cases that dwarves what people in NY and other blue states that receive tremendous benefits. It’s not a matter of thinking humanly, it’s a matter of thinking at all! Plus I have a house in Florida, so, you know, there’s that.

Oh ya. Those folks are "fleeing for their lives," or seeking "political asylum, " though they haven't gone through the process of applying for it.

To a certain extent, in order to exchange ideas, we must accept phrases like “humanly” from time to time. In the alternative, as Tibs always says, we spend so much time with the explainification of our thoughtishness that we end up wastifying alot of time.

You want to live in Florida, fine, but not on my dime. We have rare opportunities to agree, but on this one I agree with you. After Katrina and Sandy, the federal government should have stopped insuring residential property that is in 100-year floodplains and well-documented 100-year storm surge areas. If somebody wants to privately insure those, go for it. I know that is crippling to places like New Orleans and coastline, but how many times have the taxpayers rebuilt homes in these areas? How many people have died because they stayed in homes in these areas? I've always found the "it's climate change!" argument ironic because whenever there is money to be made, we all keep building homes in deserts, in floodplains, etc. and we never revise the rules to prohibit it. 1

You’re not making sense. The number of people that died during the most recent hurricane is dwarfed by the number of people who contribute to their greater good.

The numbers aren’t even close based on your standards, so it’s gotta be just that you’re a heartless person who doesn’t want to part with any of his money. 9 minutes ago, Tiberius said: 2) We all pay taxes, that doesn't give us the right to demand more to insure our risky behaviours!

Again though, why? The reality is the federal government owns the federal flood program. The decision-making, who gets what, when and for how much. Decisions made by individuals and financial institutions were/are made on the conditions of the program. I suppose they could offer federal forgiveness of mortgages for individuals who relied on the program, but that gets pricey.

The void between what you know and what is real is too great for a volunteer poster to spend time on Not just the immigration thing, but on so many levels. Post 9-11, the US INS Service reported that there two million individuals that had overextended their student visas and were unaccounted for. Two million........And that's just student visas. We are absolutely not enforcing immigration law. and to suggest that we are is lunacy. Edited October 3, 2022 by sherpa
