Floods increase the nutrients in soil. This is a temporary setback that will lead to massive overproduction. The last thing we need to worry about is famine.

Most Americans can survive a couple of months without a meal.

Worth it. It's great having all of the lakes and reservoirs full again. That dry spell was getting pretty crazy and dangerous.

Following California's problems for about 20 years, they appear to mess up the water infrastructure.
And then blame it on the "climate change" myth, which gets them to make matter even worse.

When you live on the windward side of a Mountain range parallel to the coast, you can expect to generally get rain dumped on you and drought on the wayward side of the mountain range ("rain shadow"). California and it's not-global warming issues are solved with this one well known science understanding.

Don't worry Amerimutts, Europe will gladly share food with you, you definitely WON'T starve, lol

Besides, you panick too much. Flood is only temporary, it will quickly dry, calm down.
