Wildfire insurance... could go away after this.

I mean, it's been happening. These fires, we have more people living in wildfire and pro-nurse than we've ever had before in America. You know, Western US, whether it's resort communities in the mountains, whether it's LA, I mean, people are building homes up into the hills, literally in the middle of fire country than never did before.

Insurance companies are starting to get far more risk-averse on whether we're going to underwrite a home in a wildfire risk area. This fire may eliminate it altogether.
