John Stossel talked about the government’s idiotic flood insurance on his show on the Fox Business Channel.
In this case (and in a roundabout way, many other cases), the entity causing the flooding (the FedGov) is also the one selling the insurance, making the rules about what/who is covered, when the coverage starts, and how much to pay in claims.
Conflict of interest... say it ain’t so...
