I cringe every time I hear Donald blame forest management for the fires. You can't rake up the pine needles and pick up every dead tree in that :censored2: hole state. The blame goes to all the over development of the hillsides.

Can you not use control burns?

I worked in the forest fire prevention / fighting part of the DNR around here for 3 or 4 years after I retired. You can't imagine how many "controlled burns" we had that got out of control for awhile.

I don’t blame the tax code..heand claims to be business genius..that is the reality he doesn’t want anyone to know
This is like having a debate about brain surgery here. No one here is a commercial real estate developer. No one here knows that tax code well enough to speak to it. No one here has seen the actual returns and actual deductions. Now back to brain surgery I believe we were discussing the dura mater.

First , it's the lack of Forest management . There's a procedure that if followed can greatly help in preventing or at least controlling fire's . Picking up dead timber , also clearing out lanes of trees and creating open fields to limit fire's from getting out of control also making fire stations with water tanks and airplanes in high risk area's . California does none of that because they spend money on high speed trains that never get finished and never will !!!!

This kind of forest management works but the other night Donald was talking about all the pine needles and stuff that needs to be picked up apparently. Donald needs a refresher coarse on forest management. Other than that I thought he won the kindergarten fight that was presented as a debate.
