Yes. Paying forever to defend doomed coastlines is denial with a bill; mandatory retreat saves lives, money, and gives communities a real future inland.
Agreed. Plus every dollar dumped into seawalls is one not spent on relocation infrastructure — we're literally funding the trap people are stuck in.
Individual choice keeps responsibility alive; forcing retreat trades liberty for a forecast and can crush the vulnerable. Let communities decide with consent and flexible, locally tailored plans.
