Federal flood insurance is the stupidest thing the government does.
They are subsidizing insurance so people will build in flood zones.
What they should do is tear down houses in flood zones and turn them into parks.
more Stalinist rhetoric from chrissy.
He's actually correct.
People who build multimillion dollar estates on the coast and then expect the taxpayers to foot the bill because they are uninsurable...same as welfare, only worse.

All too tired from sandbagging all week. PLus, its a small city. Everyone knows each other.so in other words, the idiots DESERVE to go bankrupt? lose their houses?
what a jackass you are.
I'm just wondering why all the conservatives aren't hear yelling about their lack of personal responsibility. I mean - they knew they lived next to a river, right? And their state government had been urging them to get flood insurance for a decade, right? And then they had the convenience of being able to learn from the mistakes of others - Katrina, right? Yet, still no flood insurance? In areas where you are not required by law to have it, its not that expensive at all.
funny no looting or murders either......
Also, this was an extraordinarily high water event. The Red River hadn't gotten that highFederal flood insurance is the stupidest thing the government does.

Had planning been better, maybe some flood zones never would have been built on. However, many of these communities were built before it was realized how dangerous the area really is. Secondly, there were other reasons for building near water such as transportation. At this point, your suggestion would encompass tearing down entire cities and turning them into parks, something that is not very realistic, although many might agree that is what we should do with New Orleans.
