So the big push for the communists now that they've been busted for deliberately creating a huge fire load, and then *managing* rather than *exterminating* the huge fires of the west, is to pretend that fires are *natural* and therefore *good*...while at the same time whining that they need more *protection* from lawsuits.
This from the pigs who count on having unlimited resources with which to continually drag land owners and rural residents into court on frivolous charges and the leveling of outrageous fines over, and over, and over again until the residents either go bankrupt, get shot, get put in prison, or just die of old age.
"While the mainstream media and environmental propaganda machine grind out daily reports on the economic benefits of an industrial tourism economy, they never specifically say who benefits. Thatās the deceptionājust WHO exactly prospers in the New West?
"The truth is, these recently urbanized rural economies were rarely intended to benefit the citizens whose families founded small Western towns more than a century ago. Generations gave their sweat and blood to make a life in these last remote corners of the West and now, in the eyes of many, they serve no further useful purpose. For the New West, itās not a matter of helping these rural communities. Itās about replacing them
"Most urban proponents ooze nothing but loathing for the rural population. They often attempt to collectively label the Old West as a mob of ignorant, racist rubes. But they ignore the fact that their own solution creates issues of their own that go beyond race. They turn a blind eye to the āinstitutional elitism,ā the deliberate, planned creation of a culture and an economy that excludes everyone, of any race, who lack the financial assets to be a part of the newly transformed community."
"So when New West boosters praise their own economic accomplishments, few are hoping to share that success with their Old West adversaries. The transformation of the American rural West is, in fact, a hostile takeover."
"Still, the New Westās advocates offer some options (pronounced crumbs) for the residents of a rural Western town. They can:
"(1) Pursue service industry jobs in the new amenities economy, make minimum wage and struggle to survive and hope to find an affordable place to rent.
"(2) Sell their home, move to a bigger town, and secure massive loans to get a college degree, which will qualify them for jobs in a big town somewhere, but will rarely qualify them for any job back in their old town, which has now been inundated by the amenities economy. In fact, itās probably become a town in which they can no longer afford to buy back the house they sold..
"(3) Donāt be born in a rural Western town. Be born in a city or move to one when very young. There, they can make loads of money working in advertising, or investment counseling, or banking, or venture capitalism, and then when theyāve attained a level of affluence, they can move to a small town and become an āentrepreneur.ā Then they can lecture those people whose livelihoods need to be destroyed, on the true secret to success in the Brave New West."
Take it or Leave it: The New West's Big Lie...by Jim Stiles
"Forest Service policies have contributed to a fuels buildup for more than a century. But Bill Clinton turbocharged the mismanagement in the 1990s when he sharply reduced logging and road-building in federal forests. This has let disease and insect infestations run rampant, and fire proliferation is one result.
"The number and intensity of Western megafires is growing, and this year some 47,000 wildfires torched eight million acresāan area the size of Maryland. Bigger and more intense fire seasons now also routinely destroy thousands of homes, and more than 450 firefighters have been killed on duty since 1990."

āEra of Megafiresā Researcher to Visit John Day
JOHN DAY, Ore. ā Blue Mountain Forest Partners collaborative group, in conjunction with the Malheur National Forest, will be hosting a presentation on wildland fire called āEra of Megafiresā at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 21, 2017 at the Grant County Regional Airbase in John Day, Ore.
The āEra of Megafiresā is a 70-minute, multi-media, traveling presentation hosted by Dr. Paul Hessburg, who has conducted fire and landscape ecology research for more than 27 years.
This presentation is designed to help audiences better understand fire, its natural role in forest health, how management practices over the years have altered this and created conditions that contribute to larger, hotter, more destructive wildfires, and how we can better meet this challenge.
Dr. Hessburg is a research ecologist with Forest Service Research and Development. He has been studying historical and modern era forests of the Inland West for the last 32 years, publishing extensively in leading national and international journals. His work documents large changes in forest conditions and how these changes have set the stage for large and severe wildfires or megafires. This presentation is an outgrowth of his research and his concerns for the future.
The public is welcome and encouraged to attend this free presentation.
