    These are the types I have sympathy for. While these fires are no worse that a major hurricane a lot of these residents are between a rock and a hard place by not being able to sell out and move because their houses can't be insured. Meanwhile property values are skyrocketing to where they are having to pay outrageous taxes. What good is a $2M home if the expenses are crippling and you can't sell it? Also, not all residents voted for nor support the current administration. Does a vote in CA really mean anything?

    I had the exact same thoughts.
