[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel sad for the people of FL. Have they even recovered from the last hurricane yet? The news hasn't covered much at all. I have no idea if people are still out of power.[/quote]

I do and I don't. These people choose to live in a state with a massive risk for yearly catastrophic weather. They don't pay a state income tax and my federal tax dollars go to bail them out again and again. There are 49 other nice states to live in. I'm so sick of the entitlement. People want to talk about government handouts? How much does rebuilding Florida three times a year cost us?[/quote]
I think that certain vulnerable areas, especially along the coast, need to be designated as future national parks. When a disaster hits and homes are completely destroyed, the people living there get automatically bought out rather than rebuilding the home. This would be similar to totaling a car when the repair costs more than the car value. Provide more than enough so they can move somewhere else. I don’t think we need to be subsidizing people’s ocean front views anymore.[/quote]

That’s a great idea. They could make miles of national park, and then run a tram line 5 miles inland, and just build village of hotels there, and run the tram every 15 minutes for beach access[/quote]
