Are wildfire discussions political? At any rate wildfires and recovery after are part of the natural cycle. The trees that burned in Yellowstone were low quality, infested with pine bark beetles and in a declining state. A fire was needed to start a new growth cycle just as we need a fire sale to start a new growth cycle in the stock markets (See Augie that is how you escape the wrath of Zeev. Got to make a clever reference to stocks to avoid being labeled a political haymaker).

At any rate there are many species of flowers and plants that will only start their cycle based on the heat of a fire.

Yes Yellowstone did recover and is better off after the fire. The market will be better off after the next fire sale as well.

Your comments, Augie are very RADICAL, because they
fall under the category of COMMON SENSE.

It is for this reason that they are wildly impractical, because we all know that the public trust is given over to the enrichment of those who pay the keep of those who make the decisions, our duly elected politicians.

Apologies for what is obviously a political comment, but I am not talking about any particular party, but rather
politicians, in general, of all stripes and flavors.

Namaste!
