ENOUGH ALREADY!
Move the city to higher ground...
gezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Move the city.
It is crazy to live below the water level that way AND expect
the rest of the country to pay for it.
It can’t be moved, in real terms - I mean, you could evacuate the city, raze it, condemn the land, and commercial interests would put it right back. (Actually, that might have been cheaper...)
Port cities exist for a reason.
“ENOUGH ALREADY!”
Exactly. The parts of this city that are not above sea level should be permanently condemned. The idea that we the taxpayers will rebuild public housing below sea level is absolutely offensive.
It is ironic to look at the parallels between the city and the welfare system that is so entrenched there. Both are built on faulty foundations/premises and ultimately lead to failure no matter how much money the taxpayers spend on them.
INDEED!!!
Agreed. As many of us here stated three years ago: time to abandon that city, and rebuild something further up the delta.
