Fire insurance has been pulling out of California for a while so it's likely that not even Hollywood had it.
Insurers have been pulling out of California as fast as possible.
I'm going to try to get this as succinct as possible while covering exactly how fucked this is.
PG&E is the California state energy monopoly. Minus a few areas that opted out when it was formed, they run power & gas for the whole west coast with a monopoly enshrined by law. This breeds the exact levels of incompentence you would expect. PG&E is a publically traded company so they do everything they can to siphon tax dollars to investors pockets instead of doing any sort of reinvestment. They are pretty close to a Captain Planet villain.
PG&E was paid tens of millions in grants to bury powerlines. They did not do this and instead paid that out as a dividend to investors/the board.
PG&E has been neglecting maintenance for decades but its gotten much worse in the past 10. They had a powerline that,due to lack of maintenance, fell to the ground and the sparks started a forest fire that burned out over a dozen towns - due to powerlines they got money to bury but didn't. The fire was absolutely massive. PG&E was brought to court, found guilty of felony murder, and set to have pay out something like half a billion in insurance payouts because they were responsible.
Newsom effectively pardoned PG&E for the fire, making it impossible for insurance companies to recoup the payouts from the responsible party.
Due to the California state govenrment willing to immunize guilty parties against paying damages (and other California crazy laws and regulations about sucking off troons and niggers) every insurance company possible has been evacuating the state. State Farm has straight up said they are not issuing new policies and any ammendment to existing ones they use as an excuse to cancel.
This has caused insurance rates to skyrocket, we're talking at least triple and that's IF you can find coverage.
And beause of the lack of nation-wide insurers, most of regional or state-only, there is a very real chance if hit with a lot of claims they will just say "we bankrupt" go out of business and MAYBE if you're lucky you'll get paid out 50% of what you were insured for.
What’s the scale of the eucalyptus issue? Could there be a program over say five years of uprooting them and destroying regrowth behind? Can goats be used to clear brush, even if it’s just in firebreaks?
Utterly massive. They are all through out the fire zone because that's what they + grow fast so they recolonize fast when there is a burn. Many of them are very hard to get to.
But the real issue is that Californians are fucking retards. They refused to allow hunting of invasive feral hogs that are destroying the forests iwth Typical Hog Behavior. They refuse to allow animal control to remove feral cats that are killing near-endangered wildlife. So when you mention "we are going to remove invasive eucalyptus trees" all the retarded Cali brain is "We are cutting down trees" and immediately screech and protest because the earth is sentient and alive and will take care of any issues or some hippy dippy bullshit.
This would also be very expensive and would take money away from the various grifting projects, especially laundering money to campain backers via programs for nogs and spics, so its a complete nonstarter.
Goats wouldn't be able to eat back the brush. The way the brush is supposed to be cleared back is fire, that's what the ecosystem is designed for. But Commifornians are too retarded and you have faggots in the mountains complaining about "muh views" or "too close to muh house" being too dumb to realize the fire is coming for their house, the only choice they get is when and how hot it'll be.
California is a paradise ruined by a mix of evil and stupidity. The fault needs to sheer about 12 miles and put LA & SF into the ocean.
Let me give
should we execute them and laugh about it?
