I thought most of Hawaii was already like that, that is why it is a tavel destination. The companies own the best land and they build hotels and resorts to bring in the wealthy.

I heard Oprah was making a big deal about the fires, not because of the people, but due to her owning 3000 arces of land around the area. Briahna Joy Gray, on Rising with The Hill goes into it a bit: https://youtu.be/Fn2X4V_Lde0?t=299

Similar to how the wealthy have taken over the smaller islands around.

If anyone has more info, please feel free to reply!
