![]() So, if you lived on land that was a flood plain and were flooded out year after year, how long would you stay there before you decided to move? The same exact thing is happening in California, the Los Angeles area, right now. Because of it's geography and weather conditions the area is subject to extremely dry weather conditions and there fore subject to fire warnings year after year. Seems like almost not a year goes by without us hearing about a wild fire burning up the landscape in California. With high winds fanning the flames year after year leaving the area at their mercy. In spite of it all California has never had a good enough plan in place to save itself from such a catastrophe. This year is no different. California still does not have the plan, the man power or equipment to contain or manage this type of wild fire. Year after year the land is set ablaze, people loose their homes and someone dies. You have to ask yourself just how long will it be before they figure it all out and why hasn't it all ready happened after all these years. This years seems to be worse so far. Within the past year quite a few Major Insurance Companies decided to Cancel Home owners Insurance Policies in the affected area leaving many people unprotected and facing catastrophe. As fate would have it, the worse possible scenario surfaced and now many have lost everything, their land, their homes, their businesses and even friends and family. So just exactly what has to happen to change all this? If people aren't ever going to decide to move out of that area then who will be responsible for making sure such a catastrophe doesn't leave them destitute all over again? There has to be a solution. Whether it's purchasing the very latest fire fighting equipment to adding more man power to purchasing enough water tank aircraft that can douse and smother a wild fire when it' still possible to that and in turn save lives and property. A catastrophe of this magnitude affects not only, land, property, business, lives, pets and wildlife. Every one around the area is impacted as well. What will our new president do to make sure that such a catastrophe will e met with the very best fighting effort that America can provide? The next few months will tell the story of how vibrant America will be to make itself Great Again or drop the ball as always while politicians point fingers and blame each other as Rome Burns. Just Another Point of View. |
