Was just reading some articles and a lot of wealthy areas have lost a lot of the homes in them, which is honestly somewhat surprising, but fire does not descern between poor and wealthy after all. IIRC, environmentalists make controlled burns controversial in left-wing areas, so that's a lot of why wildfires happen in the first place, when they aren't done via arson anyways.

Not only are there several dozen trump clips on the topic, JRE has a clip from june/july last year I've seen talking about the state of the fireload, with an expert saying 'all that has to happen is the wind to blow the wrong way and a wildfire could burn right to the coast.'
There's 'I told you so' and then there's a situation so obvious that insurance companies were pulling out/refusing to renew in SoCal to limit their liability.
The problem is insurance companies would go bankrupt trying to cover this with how CA fucked them on how much they could charge.
CA is a shithole, and they voted for this. Sucks for the people who didn't, but I'd have left CA a long time ago if I was in their shoes
But you can bet people are already blaming insurance companies instead of their government
Well, yeah. Because personal responsibility is a foreign concept to leftists.
Did they? Who counts the votes in CA?
Insurance companies threathened to leave when California told them they couldn't charge more than X.
California went ahead. Insurance companies went away.
