this is disinformation. CalFIRE at the State of California had a 10x budget increase in the 2020 time frame under Gov Newsom. LA County has budgets larger than small countries. Fire suppression is a priority.
These fires have spread quickly and it is true that fire fighters are spread thin.
- dawnerd 2y agoExactly. There's only so much they can do. They couldn't fly aircraft. Spread to a huge area rapidly, the area isn't even that easy to get in/out of on a good day. Add in another couple fires that also rapidly spread and it really doesn't matter how much money they had, you can't just bring on firefighters that fast. I'm glad to see all the aircraft are working the fires and hopefully they'll make some good progress before night.
