Public Policy Article Review

Use the attached document (2015 Fire Budget) and answer:

The report concludes that the solution to the problem is threefold: (1) treat wildfires as natural disasters (and implicit in this statement is that the funding would be similar to the way other natural disasters are funded and would come from a general increase in the total government budget rather than from the USFS budget); (2) limit the growth of firefighting costs; and (3) limit transferring money from other programs to fire.

Which of these three solutions do you think would be the most likely to become a wildland fire policy change that the US Congress would support in the next budgeting process and why?
