Flooded in Debt: Rand Paul’s Fight To Fix Federal Flood Insurance
From Stossel TV
NOTE: This is a US based program.
Federal flood insurance is a disaster!
As I reported years ago, Federal Flood Insurance encourages idiots like me to do foolish things like building a house on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. It was a risky place to build, but I did it anyway because government guaranteed my investment. Eventually, my whole house was destroyed, but I didn’t lose a penny. Thanks!
But it’s wrong that you paid for my risk-taking, and it’s good that finally, one senator, Rand Paul, wants to limit this handout. He points out, that there’s no limit on how many times your government will give away your money. “One house in Virginia, they’ve rebuilt the house 41 times,” explains Paul. 41 times!
Federal flood insurance is like buying drunk drivers new cars. It’s not government’s job to protect people from the risks we choose to take. We should get rid of federal flood insurance and all subsidies that encourage people like me to build in risky places.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

The government may soon be able to shut down your car. Biden’s $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill includes a kill switch for new cars.
In an effort to reduce drunk driving, government wants devices in cars that will monitor and limit impaired driving. But there’s a big problem: these devices give government control over your car.
Automotive engineer and former vintage race car driver Lauren Fix points out the dangers in my video.

If you find someone squatting in your house, it turns out that there’s often very little you can do to get them out. That’s why Flash Shelton started SquatterHunters.com, to help homeowners remove unwanted intruders.
Flash Shelton couldn’t believe it when he found there was a stranger living in his mother’s old house. He called the police, but they wouldn’t help him. Turns out, laws meant to protect tenants, also protect squatters.
Shelton took matters into his own hands. Here’s how he out-squatted the squatter:
