There is growing criticism of the California politicians in the wake of the massive wildfires underway, from what are seen as poor decisions: Reducing the LA Fire Department budget by $17,000,000 and sending city firefighting equipment to Ukraine; ending forestry management practices to remove underbrush and do controlled burns to lower the proven hazard of dry spells; destruction of four dams in major rivers out of deference to fish populations which lets the water flow into the sea instead of being captured in reservoirs; failure to build new reservoirs that were budgeted for a decade ago; failure to keep existing reservoirs filled so firefighters have run out of water while current wildfires are raging uncontrolled; putting a cap on fire insurance policy costs, causing insurers to pull out leaving many homeowners with total losses; etc. Are these overly harsh criticisms, do they reflect incompetence of leadership, or is everyone being manipulated to make errors in judgment by leadership and others to ignore being vulnerable?
