Weather, beaches ...
The point is, the lazy and useless are being forced to give up and move. The place has to be cleansed first, and they are hanging on desperately, but how can they stay forever? They'll give up and go to Orlando, which has no natural advantages and just generally sucks, leaving their beautiful island for stronger hands to move in.
If it doesn't start happening, I just won't go there. Easy.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75369973 Are you suggesting older people give up and move to Florida some might others will not and will seek better places to live? If you want to talk about weak people think of all the government dependent people who live in cities prone to catastrophic weather conditions and even after a hurricane floods them out they wait with greedy outstretched hands to build or live in the same areas. Granted leftists expect the government to pay for their shortsightedness and to provide a living for them we see this especially in cities and after catastrophes. My question is does this self-entitled attitude allow people to live or rebuild in an area where another hurricane of the same magnitude could hit again in 10 years or even just next year. Regardless as to how aesthetically pleasing the views might be from any location why would you build a home in such areas prone to periodic catastrophic area. Further, why would you not properly insure your investment instead of believing the government owes you for your poor decisions? What about those of us living in aesthetically pleasing locales who are properly insured and were prepared for the storms we encountered? Why should anyone else care if I chose to rebuild with my insurance $, trust me I've already paid it all. We've exp one major hurricane in 10 yrs in Fla; we went through multiple in NC in four years, including Floyd that flooded everything around us. Our insurance premiums were nothing in NC. In AZ we had earthquakes hit that caused damage, in Cali, wildfires every year, mudslides and earthquakes. Every area has potential for natural disasters. Have a family member who's an insurance agent in inland Va- they've experienced earthquakes, serious wind storms, fires, floods and winter storm damage. People repeatedly buy only the bare minimum insurance while those of us who may see a hurricane once every 10 yrs and have homes built to the highest standards in the country pay astronomically just to get coverage. Why don't we say the same thing about folks who live in Tornado Alley? Along any of the rivers in the US? If you are willing to pay the insurance premiums to live in dangerous areas then that is your prerogative. Sometimes you do not have a choice in living in a particular state you can often diminish threats by choosing a location carefully. Many people do not consider weather conditions or area hazards such as sinkholes, mudslides, tornados or if the area is in a flood zone and water availability. Weather did not faze us as we are building a dome home that will retain heat in the winter and coolness in the summer and stand up to winds. There are many statistics concerning these threats that we took advantage of when looking for a place to retire, as we did not wish to place ourselves needlessly in harms way regardless of paying homeowners insurance.
