>Paying for people to live below ocean level makes no sense.
Well, Amsterdam is currently 2 meters below sea level already and it will be pretty interesting to see what happens to New Amsterdam, I mean, York. For one thing, Manhatten is essentially floating already, they have to pump it out continuously otherwise it sinks.
edit - ok, around sea level, it isn't at 2 meters below. I stupidly thought google would be correct.
