Flood Insurance Bill May Stall Over Pro-Life Amendment - Law360
Because Zygotes definitely have a lot to do with Flood insurance...
Confessions of a Welfare Queen
How rich bastards like me rip off taxpayers for millions of dollars
<snip>
In 1980 I built a wonderful beach house. Four bedrooms -- every room with a view of the Atlantic Ocean.
It was an absurd place to build, right on the edge of the ocean. All that stood between my house and ruin was a hundred feet of sand. My father told me: "Don’t do it; it’s too risky. No one should build so close to an ocean."
But I built anyway.
Why? As my eager-for-the-business architect said, "Why not? If the ocean destroys your house, the government will pay for a new one."
What? Why would the government do that? Why would it encourage people to build in such risky places? That would be insane.
But the architect was right. If the ocean took my house, Uncle Sam would pay to replace it under the National Flood Insurance Program. Since private insurers weren’t dumb enough to sell cheap insurance to people who built on the edges of oceans or rivers, Congress decided the government should step in and do it. So if the ocean ate what I built, I could rebuild and rebuild again and again -- there was no limit to the number of claims on the same property in the same location -- up to a maximum of $250,000 per house per flood. And you taxpayers would pay for it.
Thanks.

Why are we getting flood ins through the Fed?
Federal flood insurance is a money pit and should be ended altogether.

Federal flood insurance may have it's faults. I will concede that.
But none of them have to do with zygotes.
Why are we getting flood ins through the Fed?
Probably to prevent gouging.
