    They cut ~2% of the budget. Anyone spewing this funding cut bullshit is a partisan hack.

    Quit being reactionary.

      I suspect they could have doubled the budget and they still wouldn’t be able to control those fires.

      Still it looks like it’s affecting rich people, so something will probably get done about it.

      Why do you think it’s okay to cut funding to the fire department while keeping the police(gang) force that is notorious for not actually doing anything to help it’s citizens?

        it’s not even remotely close to half of the city burning down. But given the damage estimates are running somewhere around $150 billion, it’s bad enough
