Parts of LA Are Not Going to Be Habitable

Insurers have figured out that risk is too high in parts of California . We need to re-conceive how people are housed, and fast, says Ruben Navarrette .

Many insurers want to exit high-risk areas and are canceling policies en masse, including in Pacific Palisades .

The heart of this problem is not only climate change but the commodification of housing itself.

Housing is the most obvious sector in society in which the choice is between socialism or barbarism.

The people who have lost everything in the LA fires deserve to be treated with dignity and support and instead are being surveilled, price-gouged, and left holding the bag.

We cannot go back to 20th-century ideas of planning, growth, and wealth accumulation.
