the ash wednesday storm wiped out the outer banks and huge chunks of delmarva, it's wall to wall houses now

hugo wiped out charleston, it's wall to wall houses now

those storms were decades ago back before the outlook was "get ready for this to happen multiple times every year until we all die"

UBS was financing some of this until 2007/08 when their internal documents I was reviewing as a UBS-hired third party legal investigator generating a report of no wrongdoing for the NY state AG. Not profitable as of that point to provide private structure insurance on pretty much the entire southeastern seaboard without massive government subsidies.

They knew. They were also articulating an opposite view through some ex senator they'd hired as a lobbyist to deny climate change. Argued against increasing for new structures' building standards to hardened cement structures because the homes would be "unaffordable"

almost everything on St. George Island is elevated on stilts to a second story above the ground, and a majority of beach adjacent homes in the panhandle are as well, at least construction older than the 1970s or so

I'm going to just barely make next month's rent and bills by a margin of about 45 dollars because I got hurt at my physical labor job and had to miss several days (nonconsecutive, so worker's compensation doesn't even kick in) so gently caress off moron.
