Rat is befuddled that massive rains and flooding can happened in a State that is essentially a giant swamp.

"The common usage of this term implies that swampland is worthless. Without development or some ability to develop it, it is not valuable for real estate purposes. There have been cases that swampland was purchased and turned into very valuable property, notably for the creation of Walt Disney World and also to some extent including many developed lands in Florida. Sometimes that is done by businesses to meet a development permit requirement to preserve some Florida land in order to build on other Florida land. [5]
