Political Factoid

Massive so-called 1,000-year
flooding is occurring with
increased frequency.
  • Houston 2017
  • Ellicott City 2016, 2018
  • etc.
Some common-denominator
contributors:
  • Excessive upstream building
    by greedy developers
    taking short-cuts
     
  • Ignoring or cheating on
    environmental impact statements
     
  • Not paying to mitigate the
    impact of their actions
     
  • Getting wealthy and leaving the
    public stuck with the bill
Sure isn't anything "conservative"
about the political winds that let
them get away with this.
