6. Large parts of Florida are unsustainable and getting worse.

Rising seas with more frequent and catastrophic hurricanes are not cyclical phenomena. A reinsurer who wanted to pretend otherwise would go broke in a heartbeat. The state will have to assume that function and the only sustainable model will require not rebuilding in the devastated areas and curbing and regulating coastal development. This is the exact opposite of what Republicans have been doing for decades.
