As to Hurricane Sandy, are you suggesting that no homes should ever be built along coastlines? That the Midtown Tunnel never should have been built because it flooded? Get a grip!
I said I was done with this thread....
You obviously don't know anything about density....that example above ain't it.
Stack and pack housing that is being reference is along these lines...
And no one is suggesting we stop building along the coastlines, why would you even suggest something that dumb? He is suggesting we build more intelligently as just paving over everything isn't intelligent.
Learn about Mussolini and you would know why I'm laughing at you.
I'm laughing at you because that's the best response you can come up with.... don't rebuttel with anything having to do with this thread.... just call the person you are debating a communist. Classic.
Good Grief, I thought you guys were for LOCAL government control. Why is it scary for a local government to decide to move toward sustainability, especially if the citizens of that locality support it?
You want to take the feds out of things, but you don't want local government to govern.
You don't understand. Most local governments have come on board and they don't understand it either.

Coastlines is too broad a term, what we should not be doing is development along barrier islands, and flood zones.

Learn about what your speaking of and get back to me like I said. I doubt your a communist but you are the favorite toy of the communists...............the "useful idiot" as Stalin used to call em.

The problem is you just about call everyone who doesn't agree with you a communist. Your views are so far right, moderate conservatives and moderate liberals, would look like Communist to you.
I'm not sure if you are just a product of the McCarthy era or what.
Oh. I see. So .gov should buy up all of the private property in those areas? With what? Borrowed money from China?
No.... states and local govt can enact zoning and enact setbacks along coastal areas. Can you think without taking the extreme position on issues that you can't grasp?

But all of us pay everytime theres a disaster , taxes regional wise go up to pay for those in Flood zones or the Coastal towns..it would be worth it with increasing storms.
