Quite the scam that they have concocted here, a never ending scam with a zero chance of ever being resolved but with a never ending $$$ of remedies to “cure” it.

Removing Agenda 21 tinfoil. It can’t happen here.

Really? Watch Agenda 21 legislation introduced in Congress by Nancy Pelosi:

I know there's a “special purpose” in this but cant yet determine what it is.

Politicians and other Climate Change scammers must have bought a lot of cheap, marginal land in the middle of nowhere that they want to unload on the government at outrageous prices.

plan would keep ... federal buildings away from flood areas.. due to climate change

This is series. I'm for immediate action on this to prevent disaster. The science is now settled and we must put in place a complete moratorium on ANY federal building. NO MORE Federal Building!

[isn't it great to play out "agenda" in ones demands?]

It would give Obama an excuse to move the White House to a mountain top on Hawaii.

Or Kenya.

Heck, why waste the money?

Just move to Camp David full time, and be done with it! It’s already an armed camp.

IF the flood levels are true, much of the supposed ‘safe’ substructures of The Capitol building would be inundated.

Yeah, but crazy hyperbole like that would depend on using only a decade of data and suddenly assuming that the increase in rise will continue exponentially for 100 years.

We don’t have enough data to show that the oceans will continue to rise at an increasing rate over the next 10 years. It might decrease or even reverse... in which case not only would crazy numbers like 5 feet be wrong, but 100 years from now we might be going down again.

Statistics are the most abused form of math in human history. Coming up with numbers above 2 feet require only looking at the last 10 years and assuming that will continue forever.

Globull warming is not going to happen but building roads away from hazzards will equal roads to nowhere. Federal buildings built in safe areas will equal buildings where no one can access them.

Uuuuuhhhh, I believe that was “...saved millions FROM needing a job,” what with “free” cell phone, EBT cards, and other nefarious government administered largess!

Considering Washington DC is mostly tidal estuary it might be a little late.
