Its not just your imagination: Used Cars Cost Almost Double What They Did Nine Years Ago

Its tough being in the government when you have to impose liability on companies and protect them from that same liability at the same time.

Facing an estimated $30 billion in liabilities from recent fires, PG&E filed for bankruptcy protection in January. In July, Newsom signed a controversial bill creating a fund to help shield utilities from some fire-liability costs. But, since it might take only two or three major fires to drain the $21 billion allocated to the fund, utilities remain vulnerable.
