6. As usual, this is an opportunity for the rich and a disaster for the poor.

The rich will be relieved of the Coastal Commission regs they've been chafing under and will build bigger than ever and and encroach onto our public beach. They will dump pollutants in the ocean during contruction. The poor, who were renting rooms or piled into overpriced apartments, will be driven out as the old apartments will be replaced with new ultraluxury apartments/condos. The middle class, mostly in Altadena, will likely give up and sell their lots to developers since they need homes and money right away and can't wait out construction in their second homes, like the rich in Malibu and Pacific Palisades. Kinda like ethnic cleansing, this fire will result in class cleansing.
