Places like Miami and New Orleans are fricked. We need to just go ahead and admit that to ourselves.
Now here comes the billion dollar question.
When are they fricked?
Next year? No
20 years from now? No
100 years from now? Maybe
10,000 years from now? Probably
1,000,000 years from now? Almost certainly.
10,000,000 years from now? Great buy for ocean front property….again

First, you actually don't know that. Catastrophic events happen in nature all the time. Read up on the Ice Age Flood that created the weird terrain in Eastern Washington. Things can reach a tipping point and then have catastrophic consequences.
But more importantly, you're totally ignoring my advice to revamp the national flood program, and to stop wasting billions on coastal restoration that could be better used. Neither of those things is a radical idea, and we really need to revamp the NFIP in any case.
So you're basically creating straw men here to argue with. You're making all kinds of shite up about me, and then attacking that. Why don't you address the actual points of the NFIP and coastal restoration?
Probably because you're trapped in some kind of 1950s Red Scare paradigm. If you don't agree with something, it MUST be Communism.

Exactly. And when I point out he was ignoring the rate he pretends like he wasn't all along, and even tries to spin it back on me.

As far as NOLA goes, NOLA has a subsidence problem, not a sea level rise problem.

He also assumes continued warming when data shows 8000 years of net cooling. I guess he isn’t ready to give up his false idol.

Assuming 3.4 mm/year is correct, this is plenty slow enough for humans to adapt.

Yup. Same people define government doing a good job by how many new laws get passed. I wish Congress would spend 4 years doing nothing but REPEALING laws.

Physics and subsidence be damned. Does that about sum up your "science"?
Just stop now, you're way out of your league.
But I wouldn't expect some hospital orderly to understand that isostatic and eustatic sea level rise can occur at the same time.

Of course.
Due to Isostasy many areas are rising faster than any "climate change" catastrophe can cover them with water.

...and still had ice to capture that "info". According to the Chicken-Little treehugger crowd, if we rise half a degree, the entire Greenland ice sheet will melt and the world will flood.

Let's repeat for the slow learners ...
0.03"/yr.
A sea level rise of 0.03"/yr is not going to lead to sudden catastrophe ... EVER!

Do you actually believe sea level rise is inundating the Mississippi River delta?

You're assessing changes attributable to delta subsidence as actually being d/t GOM eustatic sea level rise ... as in the case of Merkle's South Pacific Island faux pas?

In your neck of the woods the sea level is decreasing at a similar rate to the sea level increase in Louisiana for the exact opposite reasons::

You seem confused. A Smart Car is between eight and nine feet in length. The giant millipede Arthropleura (lived approx 300 mya) was approximately the same length.
approximately the same length =/= the same size.
Millipede was 9 ft long and 110 pounds, that's like a big snake, not the size of a car

Maybe all those poor folks in NOLA and Miami can move to the new, breathtaking coastal areas of the great state of Alaska!

whats the tolerance of accuracy of a satellite in orbit measuring water levels?

The Mississippi river is drying up!!!!1!11!!
wait, no, now the sea level is rising!!!!1!!
ACT NOW by sending us your money so we can stop this and save humanity
