  • Just because you can buy a degree, doesn't mean you have a damn clue how to perform the work. Degree's and certs are a good indicator of a qualified candidate, but by no means can they be trusted. Even being a vet doesn't mean a lot by itself. Although I do have to say, all of the vets I've known with degrees, have been highly effective employees.

  • Great idea, lets import drugs from a country that doesn't make drugs. Where do they come from then? The plan is to buy the drugs we sold to Canada, back from Canada, in order to save money. Just fucking brilliant I tell ya.

  • In some places that's exactly what has been done. Usually the government uses eminent domain on the land rather than allow reconstruction. The problem being the cost. Most cities and states would have nowhere near enough money to move a fraction of the homes in danger, or even pay for their relocation when they're destroyed.

  • Sure, we're just going to need 50 million or so new affordable houses, and to double the trade costs of all international goods and commodities.

    If you think gas is expensive now, wait till they have to move all the shipping and refining.

  • People moving into areas of high risk are only a tiny portion of the problem. The existing owners, and their kids, are already too much risk for a lot of places. Hundreds of thousands of retiree's already live in beach front condos that have been there for 30 years or more, and they have no way to move. There are millions more in similar places, that just have to accept whatever happens to them, because they have no resources to move, and a fixed or non existent income.

    That problem is going to be the biggest one when dealing with climate change as a species. Moving hundreds of millions of people, who can't afford to move, to places that don't want them to move there. Interspersed with random natural catastrophes causing horrible loss of lives and resources.
