The policies of the left always boil down to hatred of people trying to make a living. That, more than anything, reveals their Marxist roots.
Amen
Progressives/leftists/Marxists/socialists/communists/Democrats destroy everything they get control of.
People (women, students, blacks), cities, landscapes, media, churches...
And since 1990, when the environmentalist assault on California’s timber industry began in earnest, its timber industry has shrunk to half its former size.
````
the well-paid environmentalist assault. Its the same people burning looting cities today; in the 80s and the 90s, the city folk watched as these wackos came after the rural folk - now its their turn.
This is what they do in the SE...Most of the the forest are in private hands..
Florida had a wildfire season many years ago and have gone back to control burns..

Yeah, this State sure is screwed up, I remember when the Sierra Club began their Power Grab by Shutting down most places in the Desert to ride motorcycles to save a RAT!! Early 70’s
My friend who grew up in Germany said the Black Forest never has fires. They pick up all dead branches, keep the ground clean. What’s so hard about that?
“Up until the mid-1970s, we managed our national forests according to well-established and time-tested forest management practices.”
No, they did NOT: The fact is that they piled upon decades of derelict policies with even worse policies.
Deny that fire is part of the western ecosystem and you’re part of the problem.
Was there any evidence of lightning causing these fires?
“Environmentalists Destroyed California’s Forests”
And Washington’s and Oregon’s.
So it all started with The Peanut Farmer who also set the lunatics loose.
Environmentalists save a tree and let the whole forest burn,the logic of the utopia tribe.
Weyerhaeuser is the largest private land owner in the US. They own, outright, 7 million acres.
Throughout the Northwest their lands are surrounded by National forest and State forest.
And their lands do not burn.
To Weyerhaeuser, every tree is precious. In some stands, every tree is tagged and tracked.
Their lands are a honey comb of roads.
The Forest Service should issue them forest management contracts for the remaining 120 million acres, with the mandate to maintain the normal biodiversity, rather than commercial monoculture.
It would change everything.
The Kalifornia Conservation Corps had Fire Camps up and down Kalifornia, some of them deep in the forest, clearing brush, creating and maintaining fire breaks. There were, at one point, hundreds of such Fire Camps. Now, there are less than 50. President Billy Jeff Clinton started banning and destroying fire roads, so humans could not easily reach burning forest (make the forest more ‘natural’ you know). I don’t know about you, but I have never seen a squirrel pick up a hose and put out a fire.
