No. Not LA city proper anyway. Our infrastructure is in shambles. Our leaders are corrupt. Our population complacent...and now stoned on legal weed.
We refuse to tackle immigration — are overcrowded and highly densely housed in poor foundations on some hillside areas. This includes expensive real estate as well as shanty style apartments.
Please pray for God’s mercy.
LoL good grief am I cynical.
Oh, you’re just trying to cheer us up.
“Replacing miles of water pipes with ones that won’t break in an earthquake”???
We ALL have seen pics of land raised up—or with WIDE expanses after an earthquake. What kind of materials in water pipes will stay together with that kind of upheaval?
NONE-—This is another ‘feel good’ project that money is being spent on to lull the residents of Calif until there is an even bigger quake.
I lived in So Cal from 1964 to 1993. I was in the 1971 quake. Lucky to not have much damage-—especially compared to people I knew who lost every dish & item out of their cupboards & the front & back doors opened & the contents of their swimming pool came THRU the house.
My house was positioned east/est. Their house was north/south.
I rented out my house until 1995, so my renters went thru the 1994 quake. AGAIN-—MINIMAL damage. I don’t even remember filing an insurance claim. They fixed what was wrong. I don’t remember if THEY had renter’s insurance.
But I do remember the damages to the Santa Monica Freeway, which C C Myers company fixed 60 some days ahead of schedule. He got a bonus of $1 M a day & he split it ALL up among his employees who helped repair everything. IF he had gotten behind schedule-—the FINE would also have $1M a day.
