3. Yes, fire planning needs to become a focus and that will create jobs

All kinds of disaster READINESS should be happening,
and that will create jobs.

Long-term environmental vision, planning & investment
is urgent; this will bring jobs, many many jobs, and inspire
many to get an education in the *new* fields of energy,
conservation, infrastructure.

There ought to be a Department of Common Sense.
