Everyone on the Florida coasts should move to North Florida and/or Alabama.

Seriously though, why can’t they just start taxing costal properties for a hurricane fund that handles paying for these storms?

I think it’s more likely that the entire population of Florida moves on to 365 day/year cruise ships.

Nothing to see here, just the ocean casually taking up residence in this city. Perfectly normal, folks.

I think the better strategy is to assume the theory of negative partisanship is valid.

I become more negatively partisan towards Democrats every time you make a post if that helps support your theory.
