For the gulf, the states even if competent, don't have the resources to move that many that fast. That narrow shelf along the gulf exacerbates storm surges. And in fact, none had any plans to move folks without their own autombiles. All they do is urge folks to leave, and do countraflow. I don't find that very impressive. I don't find that satisfactory. I find that inadequate. I suspect most now agree with me. I suspect the law will change. It certainly should.
A problem that will need to be remedied by the individual states.

If enough citizens of these states agree with you, then they'll work through their elected leaders to effect the necessary changes.

I don't.
It certainly should.
Well, that's where we differ, and where you'll differ with virtually all conservatives. It's a fundamental truth that localized disasters can best be prepared for and handled by local authorities. They know and understand the geography/people, and can plan and react accordingly. Federal decision makers simply do not have the benefit of this local knowledge.
Certainly there are exceptions such as this one, but by and large your proposed policy will cause more disasters than it will avert.
