- vlovich123 5y agoThe Caldor fire has been conclusively linked to PG&E now?
- jjulius 5y agoNewsom has been governor for two years, and you expect that all power lines in fire-risk areas could've been buried in that amount of time? And in national forests controlled by the federal government, not the state/Newsom?
- xeromal 5y agoSome powerlines are over 100 years old. There's untold miles of lines they PG&E themselves don't even have mapped. No way it could be resolved in 2 years.
- anigbrowl 5y agoWhich would generate complaints like 'Newsom BANKRUPTS Californians - sends electricity bills SKY HIGH' or the like. Not that I'm a fan of Newsom particularly, but a lot of loudest political voices in the state aren't interested in any particular policy solutions, they're just against whatever comes along.
