It will be interesting to see if red tape prevents rebuilding houses in places where the line is going. It would be explained away as normal bureaucratic processing. Many conflicts in the RAT party can be easily explained if it is considered as a criminal mob.

A realistic comment to be sure; that the Democrats are a criminal mob with lots of detailed planning. Then again, those rail lines and fires may just be a co-incidence of where the populations of extreme crowding of humans and a total lack of modern intelligent forestry are located. Question is, were the fires located in high human population centers or in low density human areas? It is more difficult to remove a large tree if there is a house 9 feet away from it. Fire to tree to house. Complete lack of intelligent urban forestry.
