   Karen Bass hired some out of state clown company, Hagerty Consulting, to   
   take care of the recovery and permitting - for California.

   That's probably just on the permits and inspections alone.  The amount of   
   construction coordination for a new home is considerable.   
      
   Instead of getting off their butts and helping people get their homes   
   rebuilt, already broke Los Angeles has decided to spend $2.6 billion to   
   "modernize" the convention center in the hopes of attracting new visitors.   
      
   The cost of the project has since ballooned to $5.5 billion.  Nobody is   
   going to plan conventions in Los Angeles until they take care of the   
   filth, crime, gang graffiti and homeless surrounding the center.
