This reads like one of Rand Paul’s nightmares.
Over the years, Japan has spent billions of dollars developing the most advanced technology against earthquakes and tsunamis…
…Local authorities can usually contact residents directly through warning systems set up in each home; footpaths and other escape routes leading to higher ground tend to be clearly marked.
In the country that gave the world the word tsunami, Japan, especially in the 1980’s and 1990’s, built concrete seawalls in many communities, some as high as 40 feet. In addition, some coastal towns have set up networks of sensors that can sound alarms in every residence and automatically closed floodgates when an earthquake strikes to prevent waves from surging up rivers.
Imagine the tyranny involved in having the government install an alarm in your house!! And what business does the government have marking footpaths? Blowing money on seawalls and censors is just so much government waste. I bet there isn’t a functioning toilet in the entirety of Japan.
