It's not a tax


It is a tax to people who will never flood. I paid it to live in a place that will literally never flood. FEMA even thought my neighbor who appeared lower than me wouldn't flood.

If the Federal Flood was not available, I believe flood insurance would be even more expensive through private companies.


People probably wouldn't live in flooding areas and force the taxpayers to pay for it via FEMA and subsidies.

While I would never advocate to go without flood insurance, if you are sure you are never going to flood and since it isn't a tax, don't pay it.
