With how far technology has come since 1932, I personally believe incompetence is being exposed not inflated home prices
- zzzbra 2y agowhat incompetence is that? Having a hard time seeing the link between technological progress and thebsize of wild fires.
- tatersolid 2y agoThere have been plenty of wild fires in California for millennia. The incompetence is draining the LA river wetlands to build houses, building millions of houses where fires occur, building where water is in short supply, and not building fire breaks and fire suppression systems because they’re “ugly”.
- csomar 2y agoYou mean building a house with wood inside a forest area and have it surrounded by big and large trees. I get the aesthetics of it but don't complain about your house burning in a large fire. I've seen some footage and the trees have fared better than the houses. Tells you something about not preparing for any of this.
