Florida is a climate change hellscape under the mantle of a denialist maga wannabee dictator. Expect real estate values to continue to free-fall as the state is slowly washed away.

Probably Hillary's fault.

I’m sure there are nice people in Florida who mean well, but for all those who keep checking the climate change denial box on their ballot: enjoy the mud pit that was your house, moron.

They know, or some of them do. I have a buddy who retired down there and asked him point blank. He said they had talked about it, but looked at projections and how far inland, and decided it would be fine for their lifetime. They plan for it to be their last house And they don’t have heirs.

Of course he lives in one of the few blue dots in a sea of angry red denialism
