It looks like the poor and ignorant aren't the only fools in modern America. I watched some of FOX's coverage of the Californica fires. The DJs, I can't for the life of me call them newscaster of journalists. were hand wringing over the stars that might loose their homes. And that if the fire jumped the interstate it would "burn everything to the ocean."
Darwin in action again. Anyone who lives in a dry area frequented by fire and does not use fire resistant construction and plants around said home deserves to loose everything. One "reporter" nearly made me gag whenhe when on ad nausium about how stressfull the fires last year were. But he still lives in the same place and is concerned about more fires this year. He got a free warning "wake up call" and stayed put? Screw him and the million of other idiots.
I remember seeing footage from several years ago of one californica sub division where only one house was left out of hundreds. The owner picked plants that "wouldn't" burn. It was a hoot because the school district made him take his kids to the main road because the sight of all the burned homes was too tramatic for other children on the school buss. Tramatic hell, it was a free course in what to do and to not do.
Flood plains, fire havens and New Orleans all share one trait, silly sheeple that are incapable of understanding some basic "laws" of nature. Flat places by rivers fill up with water, dry palces surounded by tender dry brush burn, and if you live below sea level yuy had better be able to swim.
I am waiting to see just how GWBII is to blame for this disaster. I was almost pleaseed when the vacuum headed bimbo asked "why do poepl insist on living is such danger?" . A very simple answer, They expect society to protect them from their own stupidity!

Sometimes its just the way it is .
We got fire problems here at times , but we got as much precautions as we can against it , same with floods .
Places I go walkabout get burnt pretty fiercely at times , others we got problems with too much water , or crocs , or sharks , or jelly fish , or all of them .
Its just a matter of being prepared for what you got where yu are , making the descision to get out IF the problems are in your opinion , too much of a risk .
Earthquake for me is too much of a risk , Ill stay with fire and flood , thanks all the same .
Notice tho , its not thepoor andhelples expecting othes to drop everything and come to their aid this time round ?
Seems its a common problem with people of all income brackets that they expect their country to value them as individuals .
People think they actualy count for something in the govts eyes . amazing .
I see big problems like this as being the same as when we break down on roadside , we got to fend for ourselves , end of story .
