    These communities are unrealistic in a world where the water levels are rising. Eminent domain the beachfront houses, remove them, and build up the beach to protect the community.

    And these NIMBYs had better not be expecting taxpayer assistance when their homes flood because of their own short-sighted selfishness.

      Doesn’t FEMA subsidize flood insurance? I’m pretty sure we are funding industry on these extravagant houses for the wealthy. This is America.
