    States should be buying up coastal properties and turning them into public beaches.

    Makes it so not just the super rich can afford to have access to the beaches and also means the government doesn't have to bail these people out when their house gets washed away every 5 years because they rebuilt their house on the same spot it got washed away 5 years ago.

      I would do anything to see them imminent domain the entire coast in Malibu, on principle and secondly bc I know a few people who have homes there from my work and the turbo-schadenfraude would be amazing
