Floods be damned

If someone is the victim of misfortune that is sad but it should not be a claim on the lives of others.Floods,fire etc are acts of nature God or whatever but the victims of such  should not be compensated by the state with stolen tax payers money.If people want to give voluntarily fine but they should not be made to by the state.Government loves to extend its powers and tentacles int every nook of life and will use any excuse or pretext to expand its powers,but such power grabs should be resisted at all costs or the price to pay will be the loss individual rights and liberty itself.
