Flooded in Debt: Rand Paul’s Fight To Fix Federal Flood Insurance

From Stossel TV
NOTE: This is a US based program.
Federal flood insurance is a disaster!
As I reported years ago, Federal Flood Insurance encourages idiots like me to do foolish things like building a house on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. It was a risky place to build, but I did it anyway because government guaranteed my investment. Eventually, my whole house was destroyed, but I didn’t lose a penny. Thanks!
But it’s wrong that you paid for my risk-taking, and it’s good that finally, one senator, Rand Paul, wants to limit this handout. He points out, that there’s no limit on how many times your government will give away your money. “One house in Virginia, they’ve rebuilt the house 41 times,” explains Paul. 41 times!
Federal flood insurance is like buying drunk drivers new cars. It’s not government’s job to protect people from the risks we choose to take. We should get rid of federal flood insurance and all subsidies that encourage people like me to build in risky places.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

Publicity Kills DEI: A Free Speech Solution to Woke Companies

For years, major corporations bragged about their wonderful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. They’re good for business and morally correct, they said. So why are they now cutting those programs?
Robby Starbuck says these programs once got a lot of buy-in, because people wanted to be nice! But DEI came to mean much more than just being nice.
Starbuck says what it looked like in practice was “crazy trainings” and “overtly racist hiring practices.” Now lots of people agree with him.
Companies actually take notice when Starbuck tells his many followers about their DEI programs. Often the programs get dropped.
That’s the power of free speech.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

What Socialist Influencers Get Wrong (Just About Everything)

From StosselTV
Socialism is popular!
Youtube and TikTok stars say socialism “maximizes freedom… increases life-expectancy,” and “improves home-ownership.” It’s so absurd!
I asked my producer, Kristin Tokarev, to investigate their claims. Her video debunks their propaganda.
Influencers now rack up millions of views claiming socialism works better than capitalism. Here’s some of what they get terribly wrong!
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.
