Year 2091- Atlanta Oceanfront Developers Reject the Walled City Approach
Claiming that building a wall around the oncoming ocean would destroy the current suburban housing values, the Atlanta Ocean Front Developers Association called for more ideas to save the existing oceanfront homes while protecting Atlanta from ocean creep.

2081- Great Apple Wall Needs Repairs
New York City is applying for $423 billion to make repairs in the dike/walls that have protected the city since the “Great Ocean Inundation” of 2046. Apparently, the Great Big Apple Wall has been seeping at the core.

We can teleport the whole bunch to new housing and offices in Utah or Nebraska for less money."
Year 2046- Contractor Mental Health
Contractor associations urged passing the $245 million Contractor Stress Management Assistance Program in front of the House today.

An ad hoc group of owner associations is opposing the measure declaring that no one ever gave them a break in stress management in the last 100 years.
