Sounds like this guy is gonna know about floods.

I've read a couple of sources lambasting federal flood aid and insurance, because it is so badly worded that it basically encourages people to ignore flood risk when building, resulting in people building homes and towns in extremely flood-prone places.
I believe in community helping each other, and that government is, or at least should be, simply the organised community, so I support government assistance to disaster victims. But that doesn't mean we should encourage people to stand in the way of danger. Duh.
