Fuck no. FEMA is there to save lives and help pay for *some* storm damage relief; that’s not the same as paying for someone’s home insurance premiums so they can afford to keep their ass parked in hurricane zones in perpetuity.

One in 1,000 year storms? Florida is battered by hurricanes every year and of the 10 most intense hurricanes in the state′s history, almost half have occurred in just the 21st century. It’s only going to get worse, and that should be on the state and its representative government.

Maybe, instead, let the prices of insurance for housing in a particular high risk area reflect said risk and if you don’t like how high those prices are we can decide to socialize the costs of addressing climate change?
Just a thought
