Forest
fires emanating in the “National Forests” that surround Los Angeles have caused
$10 Billion in damage so far. The fires span Santa Barbara north of LA and
reach to San Diego south.
This is
an annual event that seems to be preventable by opening logging in these
forests and inviting nearby American Indian tribes to live in the forest. Some
will go for the logging jobs and some will go to hunt. All will clear the
underbrush and build fire-breaks. You laugh, but it usually takes this kind of
out-of-the-box thinking to find solutions to problems like this in states like
California.
Before
anything that makes sense in California can be done, somebody needs to fix the
California legislature. Government employee unions run the California
legislature with bribes to legislators and threats to keep them in line.
California
went Liberal early and were first to convert to “Environmentalism” beginning in
the 1960s. California Schools and universities were ripe for Communist
infiltration and Californians were trained to embrace all suicidal forms of
Liberalism.
California
has become unaffordable and companies have been moving out of California for
decades and this will certainly continue. Liberal politicians will continue to
tout the advantages of moving to California even when there are none.
These
folks not only have bad government, high taxes and bad judgement, but they live
on the San Andres fault and are subject to earthquake damage as well as forest
fire damage.

*Still* burning? Lord have mercy. So many people stand to lose so much...
ReplyDeleteNTL, are you still in touch with our e-friends in California? Did they disband, or just cross me off their list because I'm not pro-zoning/yuppification? It would be interesting to read comments on this post from Californians!
