Miami needs to contract with Dutch Engineers Now!

Awakening the Dutch Gene  of Water Survival underscores the need of U.S. Coastal cities such as Miami to start taking global warming seriously in the sense that sea levels without a doubt are rising.  Carbon reductions will not stop the rise.  Only a concerted effort by localities under siege will do to mitigate the flooding.  As an anti-federalist I would rather see these efforts be local and not federal. Why should I pay to save Miami Real Estate when I have Connecticut shoreline to worry about?  Also flood insurance should be kept at market rates to help direct building and investment away from high risk areas. Subsidizing will only put more at risk.
