The Government passing draconian laws is NOT THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING! People living in flood plains should have to either buy flood insurance, which may be extremely expensive for them, or self insure. If they self insure and their home is wrecked by a flood, then they may loose everything. The Government (Tax Payers) should only provide very short term assistance after a disaster and should stop pouring billions of dollars into rebuilding areas that are destroyed every time that an anticipatable natural disaster occurs.
