The version I saw was trying to make it seem like the areas that were getting burned we on the path for the bullet train (I guess so the state can eminent domain it cheaper?), except they're not near the path as far as I'm aware

Nowhere close. Fires burned in Butte County (Camp Fire), Ventura/Los Angeles Counties (Hill and Woolsey Fires).

The closest it got was the Woolsey Fire burning towards the outskirts of the San Fernando Valley, in West Hills. The nearest HSR station to there will be in Burbank, around 30 miles away.

The Job Creation Act of 2010 or whatever it was called.

Then 2 years later she wanted to gently caress Obama over in negotiations so that rich people didn't get taxed.

So I'm not too confident in her taxing the rich. Especially when she considers someone making $900k a year "middle class".

This conspiracy poo poo seems funny but the dude who started a major fire near LA over the summer did it because he believed in these crazy rear end conspiracy theories and thought the Norcal fires were a FEMA/NWO plot

EDIT: Found the article I was looking for
https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/mb4xzy/the-alleged-holy-fire-arsonist-seems-obsessed-with-conspiracy-theories-vgtrn


quote:

On Thursday, police arrested 51-year-old Forrest Clark, the man they believe intentionally started the fire after he allegedly sent a text to a volunteer firefighter two weeks ago saying, "This place is going to burn." And although it's unclear why Clark may have started the fire, his Facebook page shows that he traded in a wide range of conspiracy theories, some of which have influenced others to act violently in the past.

"The guy was like a canary in a coal mine," JJ McNab, a fellow at George Washington University's Program on Extremism, wrote on Twitter. "He was always one of the first true believers to glom onto whatever conspiracy theory was new and sexy that month."

Some of the conspiracies Clark posted about were merely goofy, like the Illuminati, ancient aliens, and Flat Earthism. Most recently, he seemed to have bought into Qanon, which some suspect to be a troll on Boomer conservatives. Meanwhile, others were directly related to forest fires and some did veer into extremist territory. For instance, his Facebook activity suggests he was obsessed with the idea of secret pedophile rings—the same idea that led a man to bring an assault rifle to a Washington, DC, pizza parlor back in 2016. He also identified as a sovereign citizen, like the man who killed four people at a Waffle House this past April.

Chicago doesn't gently caress around. But that's because the city voted out a Mayor after they hosed up during a blizzard and everyone has been scared shitless to meet the same fate. We put up with a lot in this city, but unplowed roads is not one of them.

That's still 4 people out of 1000 without access to modern refrigeration. I'm no math person but if you have 1million poor households then that's like 4000 households without refrigeration.

As someone that has had the unfortunately "pleasure" of knowing a whole lotta slumlords, one common tactic to overfill apartments or multifamily housing is to take out the refrigerator and stove in units. That lets you do things like turn a four-plex into a six-plex. That way you get a tax assessment for a four-plex, but can legally rent out a six-plex. I'm sure there are state/municipal laws that forbid this in certain areas.
