Thanks for the insult.
Look, I don't mean it as a personal insult... but any reasonable person has got to expect that when they build a house on what is LITERALLY THE BACKSTOP for almost every Atlantic hurricane, they're going to lose their home someday. So buy insurance and enjoy the beach.
I'm just tired of hearing that this perfectly predictable disaster came as a surprise to anyone. I'm outraged at the fact that taxpayer money is being used to rebuild. Infrastructure I can understand, but private homes? Every month I have at least a second mortgage worth of taxes yanked out of my paychecks. Sure wish I could have a beach house... but no, I have to pay for people who are incapable of planning ahead.
