should galveston/houston be rebuilt??

[txbondsman]

i don't recall reading anything about people living on land built on the below sea level, tidal flood plane of land AKA Washington, D. C. leaving.........

you would have if it ever flooded...

 

[rnch]

you would have if it ever flooded...

just wait, give it time....other places in our country have flooded the past couple of years that never flooded before.....why should THIS below sea level tidal flood plane village be expempt from the wrath of mother nature (or shoddily build federal flood control projects, for that matter)?

 

[SpyWizard]

You are referring to flood insurance that is federally issued, and a premium is charged, or rather all people that own insurance pay for the ability for these area's to get insurance..


What about all the looting and rapes and rioting.. damn i hate those red necks..

again.. satire and sarcasm.. it's hard to get across in the written word alone..

Catfish would be living where Burbon Street was/is/might be.

Works for me? Nope, well maybe. But I think people should be livin in a place that is free from crime, poverty, bad weather, and most of all stupid people proof. I don't like mean people either.

I think it's kind of silly then to blame the federal gov. for NO flooding then if they're the only thing stopping it from becoming atlantis

the peeps in LA are blamin. We had a ton of em here in the DFW area the crime rate went through the roof, they were everywhere. And there were a lot of people here that had 12 or more of the 2k debit cards when they were arrested. Not a bad hit, but, they were still steelin...

I just don't get it. love where ya live but make sure it's not a fishin pond.

why should or tax dollars be used to reuild any area below sea level that keeps getting flooded from mother nature?

tawk amongst yo'selves........

I love it, a parody thread three years later.

Of course there'll be no question of rebuilding Galveston, since there's white people there.

 

[gotmilk]

since there's white people there.

WAS...

lot of Messicans and turds too now.

 

[BNG]

why should our tax dollars be used to rebuild florida after hurricanes? Cali after quakes? The midwest after tornados? Those people should know better than to live in an area like that!

absofukinlutely!

I love it, a parody thread three years later.....

3 years' later, President Bush's promises of restoring what the shoddily built Corps of Engineer's levies destroyed had turned into a parody...

 

[txbondsman]

damn, I though that the Corps of Engineer's guy said he was standing behind one of the retaining walls that was keeping Gustav from flooding the damn place all over again, and they were holding. I believe he said they were still building on the 200 plus miles or so, the part that keeps the other 49% that's under sea level from washing away. again.....











damn government.
