What do you propose we do with every home that was built before 1990 or is not up to "Code"? Why not just ban Cat 4 hurricanes? LOL

Given that trailer housing is incredibly cheap compared to a conventional home/lot, I'd prefer that trailer dwellers simply accept full responsibility for their financial hardship in the event of a natural catastrophe. In other words, I'm not one to dictate to people where they can live, but I am one to object to our government bailing them out.

Private insurance can cover them as they see fit, based on probabilities and construction.
