Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco seeds destruction

Kathleen Blanco is trying to get the understandably hesitant insurance companies to issue more policies in hurricane-prone areas. She says that “there is no silver bullet” to solving the “problem” of lack of insurance.

Maybe there is no problem and people should not be living there? I would not be surprised if laws are changed to force companies to insure certain areas. Nor should anyone be surprised if public housing expenses are increased.

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. 

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
