California is constantly getting smashed by wildfires. Is it improper forestry management?

What is going on with California?

Everyone talks about the southern coastal regions but no one mentions the YEARLY wildfires in California.  The difference?  You thin the woods, have controlled burns and do some basic forestry management then I BELIEVE you could cut down the size and scope of these things.

But they don't.

Is it environmentalism run amuck or is it a problem I'm unaware.  Either way this thing needs to be solved. 

Oh and since you have multi-million dollar homes by the rich and famous crushed in this event then I bet you see some movement to mitigate the risk.
