Money question of the week: Should the U.S. share our hurricane risks?

Should we have national windstorm insurance or some other type of federal catastrophe fund? That's a hot topic for Florida politicians but more like a hot potato for those in other states. Times Business Editor Bob Trigaux wrote last week about the politics involved. In theory, if we have national flood insurance, we could have national windstorm insurance. What do you think? If you give your first and last names and city, your comment can be considered for publication in the Times.
