I agree. I'm not a part of the culture that believes we need to live in danger free zones, or warn people that hot coffee is hot. I'm just commenting on the fact that people build houses in flood zones, or below sea level at the coast and then are surprised when their lives are washed away. Ok, so someone's got that beautiful beach house on the hurricane coast. Should federal disaster aid help to rebuild it every decade when it is destroyed. I think disaster aid is really a bailout for insurance companies, and makes for good baby kissing politics.
