This is such a strange argument. The Federal Government pays billions to subsidize people living in low-lying costal areas at high risk of flooding through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). It's unsustainable to continue to subsidize due to the growing amount of people living in these areas and climate change. If NFIP actually charged the true actuarial cost of insured loss, there are a lot of low lying places in Florida where it would not make any sense to continue to build sprawl. Those areas never should have been built in the first place, but NFIP for example made it viewable. Whether you like it or not, there are changes coming to federal policies, and climate change is here to stay.
