Thank you for watching my video on the U.S Gulf Coast, I really appreciate it. Please let me know if you would like to see a video directed specifically at the Florida Panhandle.. as I realized that I have a lot more to say about that area when making this film.

I left the gray sky frozen dump state of Illinois for South West Florida and I love it. I got a direct hit from hurrican Ian just after we arrived. That was intense as we are very close to the shore. The area is recovering slowly and Im loving the sunny weather that doesn't cause daily depression. The ability to spend hours outside every day is real freedom compared to spending 6 months indoor every year.

That used to be the plan for a lot of people. Florida got crazy lately. Home prices, property taxes, insurance costs have skyrocketed. It just isn't the bargain it was a few years ago. Oh, if your illegal and can work on a roofing crew you've got nothing to worry about. DeSantis isn't shipping you anywhere for now.

Enrich your soil slowly one small area at a time and start a tropical food forest. Here in central Louisiana we can grow a lot of various fruits and vegetables but many fruit trees are a challenge because of short freezes down in the single digits which seem to be happening more often. I planted nearly 20 fruit trees this year anyway. Hopefully we`ll get a break this winter to allow my trees to become established and strong.

Yep same here, 3 years in SWFL now, moved from Pittsburgh, the rain and cold for 6-8 months does cause depression, Ian was horrible, home and auto insurance are way too high and traffic is so bad, but I will still take that over Pittsburgh....well not Ian , could not do that again that was the worse hurricane in 100 years though... Daily sunshine compared to daily rain cold and depression , I wish I would have moved here in my 20s !

One big problem is the hiring practices in the area, tied to the proliferation of military bases. There is stated hiring preference for veterans. The problem is, there are so many veterans, if you're not a veteran you're probably not getting hired. Salaries in general are remarkably low; I was told many times this is a result of military spouses being fine with a low wage b/c they're going to move in a few years, anyway. This keeps wages artificially low. With housing prices skyrocketing, living there isn't sustainable. I'm not dumping on the military or veterans, just stating experience and observation.

Houston and most of the Gulf Coast of Texas is more than oil and gas. Houston learned a painful lesson in the 1980s about being oil and gas dependent when the oil glut hit. They began a rapid effort to diversify the economy and added shipping, international trade and finance, medical services, tourism, and some other elements of commerce to the mix. That's why they are is now at 7.5 million metro and still growing. Yes, the weather of the tropics can be a bear at times, but the area keeps growing. One of the biggest concerns is now entering the future planning processes; that is possible sea level rise and efforts to mitigate its influence and how that might impact production sites on the Gulf.

I dont live far from the Gulf, an hour or so and If there is a hurricane or even a Tropical Storm in the Gulf, we get it too. Also, insurance is much higher in coastal communities as well as home prices, more HOA's too. That is why we are over an hour away not near the coast. South AL, the weather is hot and humid, there are more bugs, snakes and yes, we have gators in just about every fresh body of water. Essentially, South AL and MS is LA except further east.

As an Albertan, I can relate. It's definitely related to extraction based economies and how these corporations make promises to towns of temporary economic gains but always leave communities with long-term pains.... The faster we all move beyond fossil-fuel based economics the better for everyone. Ironically enough the Alberta government collects FAR more revenue from gambling, cannabis and liquor sales than oil and gas revenues and is clearly a sustainable business yet ALGC (the crown corporation in charge of these vices) is never given equal footing when it comes to the economy in highlight reels or even political priorities despite employing more people and bringing in far more revenue to provincial coffers... I know, even after college I worked for them via a casino job and it probably paid similar to what I'd have made risking my life in Fort Mac and the tar sands... Meanwhile the oil and gas industry clean up bill for Alberta's abandoned existing non tar sands projects stands at nearly $60B and nobody in either major political party here wants to discuss that oily black elephant in the room...

Texas has suffered from poor political leadership for close to 30 years. A business friendly place but not worker friendly. We had our largest budget surplus in history last year, other than a small break on property taxes (we have some of the highest in the nation) billions are being spent on border security to secure re-election of our leaders. Doctors & educators are fleeing the state, our power grid collapsed & is little better 3 years later. College education is hugely expensive so it is little wonder than most Texans education stops after high school. On the plus side if you learn an advanced technical trade reasonable wages can be had in the few counties with large petro-chemical industries. Sadly most of Texas is rural farming & ranching with small towns experiencing little to no growth. Most Texans are poorly educated & living in the past.

I hate to hear when people bash the oil industry, a majority of the people that live here depend on it for a living and take pride in working in the oilfield. It’s the most lucrative natural resource that this country has.

The oil & gas industry is not a factor in the economy east of Mobile Bay and is barely a factor east of New Orleans. Half the video is about an industry that is non-existant in Florida. Hurricanes are managable if people don't build stupid. We now have almost 100 years of radar tracks on tropical systems. Some areas are much more likely to get storms than others and you can see where they are. Things built in Florida after Andrew are very resisant and the latest techniques are even better. Once the state burries all its power lines Category 3 and below storms will hardly be an issue except in the lowest lying areas. The big question is how many more 4's and 5's reach shore in the future. Category 5 storms will wipe out anything, but they are exceedingly rare in the US.

The time more people were moving to the Gulf Coast was also when climate change was increasing the severity/damage of natural storms. I can see by 2035, 2040 or 2050 Northern states getting increased population. People gotta choose to live more inland or have your home submerged by rising ocean levels. Some people could be friendly but backstabbers or friendly but liars behind your back.

It is VERY clear your more of an activist then a creator. You've dobe nothing but gone out of your way to run the biggest more generously providing industry into the ground through most of ypur videos. Oil workers are ALL ALL ALL paid well. Not just management. That's was a lie you told. The Gulf Coast has a massive issue due to location of people who came here from south America as well. They bring THEIR life style with them. That's why it looks like a garbage dump in many places.
