If it's privately owned, then no public money should be used to prop it up. Why should state and federal tax money be used to "save" a bunch of rich people? Some might argue that it's a national treasure, but it's one I can't set foot on.

Exactly. It's too bad for the people who live there but it should
come as no surprise to them. Like many other beaches it has probably
been eroding for years. Beaches do that, and the sand that goes
missing ends up somewhere else to build a new beach.

In some ways it's like the people who build or buy a house near an
airport and are then surprised that planes are making noise.


Somehow the houses lost get replaced with bigger fancier ones. The
shoreline residents who "lost everything" seem to come back
better off than before. Maintaining the shoreline is an expensive
proposition. Taxpayers pay for all of it. Like New Orleans, why
keep pouring money into it. Mother nature is going to win this
war eventually.
