      Election fraud. People in Venuezuela kept wondering who was voting for Chavez. It took them a while to figure out their elections were totally rigged. Gavin Newsom knows he doesn't need real votes to win elections which is why he doesn't care about pissing off voters. That's why he's still eying becoming president even though his track record is trash. Performace doesn't matter when elections are rigged. Pissing voters off doesn't matter if elections are rigged.

      I honestly can find no laws that do not allow home owners to clear their property. Part of the problem has to do with California's interaction with the Federal Government. The Feds manage about 58% of the land in California. I have seen requirements from the state to safely remove dead trees but not laws. I do not know what are the requirements of the Federal gov't. I lived on the Central Coast of California and the city I lived in had pretty strict laws concerning trees. I know the coastal oaks are protected.

    I lived in the forest 8 miles out of Chester, CA, back in the 70s & and 80s. I know for a fact forest maintenance was alive and well. I saw it every year. It was as common as snow removal in winter. Many of us would scater for the leftover wood they would pile up after taking the bulk of trees away...it was free, and we spoke to the logers about the next area to be cleared. Then, clearing old forest growth stopped. In 2018, I walked away from the sale of a house in Paradise, CA. 2 weeks before it burnt down. After looking at 3 homes, I told my wife,
    " Let's get out of here,"
    When asked why, I told her, " This place is a fire waiting to happen." The area was full of downed dead trees, dead bushes, leaves as deep as my knees, it was a mess. Some places you could even see the creeks that ran through it. This state has been managed right into the ground, and part of the blame sits on bad voting practices.

    I have lived in California my entire 65 years and California used to be a great place to live. I purchased my first house in Huntington Beach when I was 20 for $89k. It was 1500 sq ft. Today that same house with no upgrades other than paint is worth $1.1 million. I purchased several homes, all within Orange County from 1980-2000 for $147k to $325k. Today they are worth. $1.1 mil to 2.2 mil. My property taxes were about 1 to 1.2% of the purchase price. Today, I can’t afford to buy any of my prior houses again and the property taxes have almost doubled on new construction. When I purchase my current house in 2007, my homeowners insurance was $500/month. Today it’s more than doubled. Everything is far more expensive in California and our problems are far worse. Crime has skyrocketed, homelessness has skyrocketed, illegals here have skyrocketed and California has one of the highest gas prices in America because they have the highest gas tax. The major reason California has gone from a great place to live to a place people can’t afford and don’t want to live is because of liberal policies. The media and celebrities have become far more outspoken against conservatives and the things that are right and good. Outspoken about the police, jail and the justice system. Every decision made by politicians and liberals have been bad for California and especially the taxpayers of California. In my city, you see tons of houses and businesses decorated at Christmas, but you rarely see the American flag on homes or businesses, even on the 4th of July! We are no longer a state of patriotic Americans that put our country and the US citizens first. If there was a major military operation such as after 9/11, do you think there would be the same number of people volunteering to sign up for the military? After Pearl Harbor, every available boy from the ages of 16 wanted to fight for this country. They even found a way to join after they were classified as not fit. How many do you think would be willing to fight and die for this country today if we were attacked? It’s not just California, patriotism is a problem throughout the country, with a large blame going to the educators, media and parents. It saddens me that people don’t believe in the ideals which made this country great and, that states like California have become so anti-America. I only hope people wise up and realize the current path is not good for our future.

    I'm a P&C insurance agent and 90% of my business is California Home and Auto. All day long I get calls from panicked people who are getting dropped from their carrier and can't find coverage because insurers are either pausing business or leaving the state altogether. These are people who have not had any claims, who pay their bills, and have sometimes been with their carrier for 10-20 years or more. It's absolutely heartbreaking and it blows my mind that more people aren't talking about it. Other states are having issues too because of inflation and replacement cost like you mentioned, but California is on another level entirely here.
    This has been a developing crisis since the Dems installed Ricardo Lara as the CA Insurance Commissioner back in 2019. He has done nothing but play politics since taking office and he's placed absurd restrictions on carriers to avoid "discriminating" against their policyholders, despite insurance literally being a business of calculating and assigning risk to people. They have also caused the CA FAIR Plan (a state underwritten insurance program meant for high fire risk homes) to become dangerously bloated in both risk and premium cost, because major insurers can't take any more wildfire risk in the state. There is a good chance the FAIR plan will collapse soon and a federal bailout will be in the works because of the situation California is in. I applaud you guys for talking about this, people in my industry are extremely nervous about it and fear the worst for California.

It also makes getting a mortgage for buyers even more of a challenge on top of the high interest rates. If they do away with prop 13 on top of all this, and the crazy proposed landlord restrictions pass, the housing market in CA would be in free fall. But sometimes I think that's the idea.

You can't really blame the insurance companies. It would be like betting on a horse that just injured its ankle less than a week ago. The issues in CA are NOT acts of God, they are a direct result of horrible decisions by DEI leaders that ignore reality and lack any critical thinking. Then, when everything turns to sh*t, they act like a bunch of teenagers looking for others to blame when they are the ones that doomed CA. I'm still waiting for someone from Sacramento to admit their policies are a failure and talk about how they have at least a dozen locations picked out for new reservoirs. But we probably aren't going to get any solutions like that from the clowns running this state.

A gas tax that was sent in to be voted on for the second time, only to be voted for again, increasing gas prices by .14c a gallon. I was born and raised in California, so I was able to see most of it when it was still a great state. I saw the beginning of the end when people voted to kick out Brown and put in AHNOLD! God what a joke! Now you have a slicked back viper for governor. I'm glad I left. I went back for a visit a month ago, and it got exponentially worse in the course of just two years.

      @@victor.b.8412 There were a number of publications from about 2012-2019 talking about environmentalist stopping them from clearing brush and cutting back trees. Search it and you'll find a number of articles over the years. One of the more recent ones I specifically recall was about activists in Santa Cruz around 2018. These activists make it time consuming and costly for companies to get in and do what they need to do. They are required to keep overgrowth clear by the State (now at least as of 2021) yet there are many regulations that hinder their ability to access specific areas. That can all be found on CA .gov websites that talk about laws and regulation. Now I will also say that PG&E has honestly not tried very hard to push past these hurdles. They are most definitely more concerned with their bottom dollar and when being hindered by Activists or regulations, they don't spend enough time pushing back to get things done because... obviously money. So its basically F*#%ed no matter what way you look at it. I just don't like that the entirety of the blame is being put on a single company when the blame lies with them, the activists, and the state itself for causing the mess they're in.

Californias water shortage is due to the environmentalists releasing all that water from dams back to the ocean because they harm the ecosystem like freshwater trout or whatever. The environmentalists are out of their minds there; they prevent lumber mills from cutting down dead trees in the forests that are basically tinder at that point, they prevent vehicles from going offroad to remote areas due to them crying over rare turtles or tortoises getting run over, etc etc. They run the state essentially. They fine the military 25,000 dollars per drop of oil on the decks and they are very adamant about it.

    Allstate dropped us a couple years ago because we live in the mountains. We had to go with the California Fair Plan, although there is nothing fair about it. Our premiums went from $1200 a year to over $4000 per year. We have to constantly jump through their hoops and I wouldn't put it past them to send a drone over our property at some point. We are 2 years from retirement so we can't leave. We had no plans to move when we retire and had everything worked out, but the past 3 1/2 years have ruined all our plans. How is it California can afford a high speed train to no where but we can't afford to care for our forests and have more fire fighting equipment? We can give illegal immigrants free health care, but we can't care for our forests. Perhaps if all that train money and free medical care money had been spent on cutting fire breaks and buying more fire equipment, we wouldn't have these issues.
