Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeI tend to agree with you on this. I live in coastal SC and my home is inland about 15 miles or more. That's not to say we do not have marsh land/swamp nearby. This area has been built out in the last 60 years or so. In other words the flood prone areas have been common knowledge to the locals for many years and decades. Still contractor's build on or people buy in these areas because of the views and so on Then they get the historical high tide along with torrential rains as do happen from time to time and flood as has happened in the past. These are government permitted areas that should never have been built on in the first place. Who's at fault the contractor trying to make a buck, the board that decides its ok to build in a flood prone area or the person that wants the view and says they are willing to take the risk until they get flooded then want either insurance or fema to bail them out. I have a close friend whose Daughter bought a home in one of these areas several years ago. Backed up to the salt marsh, was plain to see the back yard would flood at the least bit of extreme high tide. Several of use tried to change her mind but she bought it anyway. First issue was the added flood insurance above and beyond the regular for the mortgage. Started out an around five to six hundred a year maybe a little more to a final cost last I heard of over $3000.00 a year on top of her home owners policy. So nearly $4000.00 dollars a year. Then it happened days and days of heavy and along comes an extreme high tide and floods part of the home , she has since put the house on the market and has moved to a different place. She also lost her car and both her sons car's as they left then parked in front of the house as the flood water came up in the back yard and house. They could have gone less than a quarter mile an parked on high ground but she said I just didn't think about it she said. This a well educated young lady in her early forty's and I do not feel sorry for her and the problem she brought on her self. I believe what JD Seller was saying is there is a limit to how many times these people should be saved. Some of this that goes on and people expect everyone to just jump at the chance to spend their money to come save them yet again. Kind of like kicking a great big sleeping dog, you may get away with it a time or two but sooner or later your going to gat bitten and what am I supposed to feel sorry for you? Not going to happen. If my spelling or poor use of the English language bothers you so be it, keep it to your self as I do not care any more.
