  1. I can't imagine the loss of losing one's home like this. It's not just the house but the belongings that are burned. Having said that and not wanting to sound cold hearted. But the movie starts often have multiple homes to move to.they most likely have insurance coverage. They won't be on the floor at the YMCA or a church or a friend's pull out couch. Thank God this wasn't watts or Compton full of working class poor. Is the pain real? Yes do they deserve our prayers?most assuredly. But let's also keep this in perspective they can and will rebuild. I remember in the 70s when a huge storm destroyed don rickles house. It was caught on the TV news. He laughed in part in shagreen and shrugged I got ins. These Hollywood stars are living in tibet where hundreds died who have no 7figure paychecks to finance the rebuild.

  2. "A DEI, Green New Deal Bomb" – Victor Davis Hanson, describing the reasons for the LA fires. Gavin Newsom redirected fresh water into the Pacific Ocean. LA Mayor Bass cut $Millions from the LA Fire Department budget.

  3. They have millions of dollars and have multiple houses it's not that deep,give some attention to the normal people who is affected they have to wait an another year or 2 just to rebuild an another house.

  4. It’s great that celebrities can escape to their other homes, but what about those watching their only home go up in flames? California should cover the costs of the homes being destroyed. The state is responsible for not clearing the underbrush. Californians pay taxes for this service every year, yet it’s not being done. I recall when state prisons had inmates handle the underbrush cleanup, but that was deemed too harsh. I would gladly support using my tax dollars to pay inmates for this work rather than see my house burn. Additionally, inmates could use that money to help cover their prison costs, which aren’t free. California needs to be accountable for misusing taxpayer money.

  5. CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE LAND????????? WILL THERE BE MORE DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION MOVING FORWARD INTO THE FUTURE ???? I AM PRESUMING THAT THE LAND STILL HAS SOME VALUE LEFT TO IT

  6. Back many years ago actors were for entertainment of the people but the people hated them because they could not trust them, they were just that, actors, fake and untrustworthy. How are they now the “elite” and wealthy.
