“I don’t mind sending them some money, but unless they show that they’re gonna change their ways and get back to building dams and stormwater, doing the maintenance with the brush and the trees – everything that everybody else does in the country, and they refuse to do it – they don’t deserve anything, to be honest with you, unless they show us they’re gonna make some changes,” he said.

Sen. Tubby Tantrum is a damned moron, but I actually somewhat agree with him on this one. Seems like every year I hear about ever more destructive wild fires in California. Some of that I can attribute to climate change, sure, but there is almost certainly more than that causing them at this point. Does California not do controlled burns any more?
