It is easy not to allow houses to flood, just do not build on flood plains. We have similar problems here in Oz, they build on flood plains then complain when they are flooded out.
As brian says we all pay tax, even tax on tax!
We pay stamp duty on an insurance polcy then GST on the total.
Happy daze John in Oz.
