I see floods all over the news. Why should sensible people like me who

Don't worry, you won't be asked to foot the bill. Now you don't need to
worry about spending all that money on Christmas presents.

All taxpayers foot the bill, even though they don't get flooded.

Their insurance companies do.
Supposing they can get insurance where they live.

No, the GOVERNMENT is paying for damages, not just insurance companies.

Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.
