If that's your position, I hope you can continue to develop social clout quickly. I never had much of that, and lost what little I had when I got some economic clout, and I still don't understand how I've survived. I'm glad you survived your fire.

Even worse, I was out of town and was told the fire department stated they would not investigate. Don't worry, it was a single-wide, uninsured. I had most of my things in storage. I'm fine. I didn't feel fine at the time. I have been searching for a new place. Found shelter with kind family. This time, I do it ALL myself. No retail, stick-built, slap-em-up, bank-subsidized, residential-unit suburbia bullshit. I'm looking to build a home that doesn't burn and can't be invaded. The wheels are turning...
