I ran into a guy the other day who said that New Orleans should be left
to whither away. You know, the old "Anyone who lives in below-sea-level, hurricane part of the country should live with what they get." I asked him if the same should be said of those in earthquake-prone Californa, the flood-plains along the Mississppi River, the entire state of Florida, tornado alley in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, and along the east coast including here in coastal NC.

He shut up.

3. Tornado Alley extends clear up into northern Iowa. If the insurance
companies are going to quit coverage in those areas then they will have little choice but to wither.
