I get the wind. Would it have made a difference if the people were allowed to clear the overgrowth, brush, trees, etc?
More false information. Everyone in CA is allowed and encouraged to clear defensible space around their homes. The fact is it didn't make much of difference anyway. Those homes on PCH in Malibu had no dry fuel around them and they all burnt down.

Even Joe Rogan understands there's not much can be done in this scenario.

California has a law limiting insurance companies' ability to raise rates on fire policies to keep premiums from getting too high. Insurance companies, in response, stopped offering coverage in areas where they were likely to lose money. Residents in those areas were left either uninsured or stuck with expensive substandard FAIR coverage.

As of now, it is estimated that FAIR won't be able to cover all the losses of its policyholders and will have to collect the difference from insurance companies that operate in the state. The insurance companies will, in turn, pass those costs on to their policyholders in the form of higher premiums.

What does that mean? Joe Citizen will be paying higher premiums to ACME Insurance to cover loses that weren't insured by ACME Insurance because the state didn't want ACME Insurance to charge higher premiums. I'm not one to play the "They asked for it" card but wow, Californians are a different breed.
guess what? global warming is real and it means a lower standard of living for everyone since we didnt do anything about it

if you were religious, you likely didnt fight for social justice the way billy graham did against civil rights or nuclear war (who i think is just average anyways), and so you failed.

private profits, socialized losses. the corporations profited destroying the environment, we all pay for global warming. thats the deal.

Sounds like ICE didn't do their job the first time.

If he came in during the last four years the Border Patrol was required by the Biden administration to process him into the country and ICE couldn't touch him in a sanctuary city jail even if they were told to by the Biden administration (which they weren't).

And yet

We have space, computers, medicine, etc etc etc

So we do know

Wrong


"According to NASA and most climate scientists, reliable global temperature records have been kept since around 1880, as this is when observations from thermometers covered a sufficient portion of the planet to accurately measure global temperatures."

No we don't. In fact the very thing you said can be proved wrong by the current science. Here's your current information source

notice a difference? When you use the correct information. The colder winters start to make sense. Good luck with your common sense.
