Yes, but the people who go to Fire Island are valuable constituents of Chucky. They pay a lot of property taxes too on that ocean front property. Gay guys also have a lot of disposable income in comparison to heterosexual couples. They are DINKS(Double Income No Kids).

Rich people with multi-million dollar properties are begging government to forcibly confiscate money from hardworking Americans so they can defy nature. Jeez, the next thing they will demand is government subsidized insurance for their properties. Oh wait …

These are the same geniuses that are all about “the science”. If they had a modicum of an understanding about science they would know that barrier islands and shoreline constant erode and shift due to tides and storms. They would also know that in places where man intervenes that shorelines have more problems. Just compare the NJ coast to the NC coast.

Talk to Hochtul. It’s her responsibility unless the beaches are on federal land.

Do you thing that they all "got-together" on "one side" of the island, and its starting to sink?

Oh no. You don't think that it will "tip over and capsize"...

The history of the South Shore of Long Island, since human habitation, is one of constant erosion. West to East currents alongside the Gulf Stream scour those beaches and also. eventually, remodel them with new sand.

Back when people were normal. rock jetties were built in many places to preserve beaches.

That was the Before Time. Now, jetties are an offense to Gaia, so the beaches are washing away.

It’s OK, though, because the fresh water under Long Island is being consumed at a great rate, and salt water infiltration will require evacuation of Nassau and Suffolk counties before too long.
