Californians: Sow. Reap.
And, the rest of us don’t want to pay for your stupid choices!
The end result of Democrat supermajority rule:

President Trump on California’s situation (of their own making):

Who is so fscking stupid to downvote these facts?
Cook,
You and your virtue-signaling braindead ilk in The People’s Republic of California voted for this. You voted for DEI over competency.
Pay for your own stupidity for once. Maybe you’ll finally learn something.

This article really reveals how fscking stupid Dems really are
California has not built a new major water reservoir since 1979.
The state is spending millions to REMOVE existing water infrastructure.
Water cuts to farmers and citizens over a 3-inch fish led to empty reservoirs.
Removing grazing, controlled burns, and management left California an unnatural tinder box.
California changed its wildfire approach from expert forest management to militarized fire suppression.
They knew it was coming, and yet the city was unprepared.
In 2023, 13,909 “homeless fires” were started in Los Angeles alone, almost double the number in 2020.
ESG/climate policies and DEI hiring prioritized over effectiveness and competency.
State politicians take donations from at-fault power companies while fire victims remain unpaid.
CA voted for communism, they are experiencing communism
CA needs to be earnestly asked–like almost every earnest liberal govt–what success have your policies wrought? First, because they embrace central planning, the indi becomes less respected/important. More essentially, it kills incentive. Humans need/thrive and are inclined to exhibit a great % of EXCELLENCE when truly incentivized and much less so when not.
Speaking of incentives: Since 2019, California has spent about $24 billion on homelessness, but in this five-year period, homelessness increased by about 30,000, to more than 181,000. Most can/would/will look at this stat and say, “duh,” but the earnest liberal would give a shoulder shrug and say, “we need to draw more taxes, or need a special bond for a nice camp for those experiencing life w/o a roof.”
The time must be getting close where the earnest liberal says wtf, I guess this doesn’t make sense. Then ask, have the CA policies dropped the earth’s temp at all? If they blame the fires on AGW, ask them, if you were a fire, what would you do in 75mph winds and are the winds–that have their own name–relatively new to these parts?
