What beachfront property says about global warming
American Thinker ^ | July 27, 2022 | James L. Swofford

Barack Obama and billionaire Bill Gates have recently bought low-lying beach properties. That certainly seems in conflict with what they claim to believe about global warming and rising sea levels.

It’s more than just those two. What it says is that none of them believe the crap they are pushing.

Barrack and Bill just have a lot of faith in Greta “How-dare-you” Thunberg.

Al Gore, Zuckerberg, Bloomberg, the Hollywood crowd. The list goes on and on. Private jets, oceanfront mansions and limos for them.

Eating bugs for you.

Don’t forget about Pelosi AND Zuckerberg with their HUGE beachfront properties! IF the American people had one ounce of common sense this alone would be enough to prove the BS of climate change! Same thing with the damn virus just look at what the elites are doing, no masks, partying with friends YET telling the masses the danger we were in!! People need to open their damned eyes!!

Perhaps the most vulnerable area to rising ocean levels are the Maldives. A collection of small islands near the equator, and low-lying such that the average height above sea level is only about 4 feet.

Because of the centrifugal forces near the equator, any rise in sea level will be noticed there first (hence the equatorial bulge.)

The Maldives are doing just fine.

And, as one who grew up near the Pacific Ocean, and who would recognize any significant ocean level rise, I can report that the Pacific Coast tidal levels appear no different.

Bill Gates ocean front home in southern California has a ten feet high, two feet thick, poured concrete sea wall that is only 25 feet away from the ocean at high tide.

I am surprised those homes were not washed away decades ago.

Insurance companies will start requiring not just flood insurance for water coming from the upland areas but “Climate Change induced sea-level rise insurance”

The author could have stuck to the hypocrisy of political climate alaramists buying property with ocean frontage. That - highligting the hypocrisy - has some sound arguments to make.

But claiming “The reason for maximum 30-year loans on homes is that the value of a dollar 30 years from now approaches zero and thus has no value to a lender” only demonstrates that on financial matters the author does no know what he is talking about.

Listen to what people say and sooner or later they will tell you who they are.

Watch what they do and it will tell you what they truly believe.

When prices on beachfront property decline more than the market over a 10 year period, then I might believe there is an impact from climate change....not man-made climate change, but natural climate change.

A huge part of the American people don’t even hear about or know about the properties and extravagances of the Hollywood and rich leftist politicians... Big Tech suppresses all this from ever being on the news or on nationwide TV...

We hear and read about this on Free Republic, but most of America is clueless about what really goes on...

Venice Italy was built on the level of the sea and is still there. An entire city that uses boats as transportation. Global warming wasnt a thing way back then, I guess.

I have never of anybody of any political persuasion who actually believes the “climate change” garbage enough to keep from buying waterfront property.

We live in the age of blatant lying.
