You got that right! Those people in Commiefornia have been asking for this kind of crap for years. I have absolutely no sympathy at all for them. “Play Stupid games, win Stupid prizes”.

“Funny they’re ALL blaming the power company! How many Marxists in Sacramento does it take to run a power grid?!”

It’s one of the sad, scary defining characteristics of the left. It’s their inability to comprehend that there are consequences for their policies.

The killed logging in the 1980s and this is what you get....Trump should sell all forest service land to private owners....You do not see this in the SE because most forest land is privately owned...and trees are worth money if taken care of

It’s almost like California’s leaders are trying to get people to leave the state.

Make California Mexico Again

Get used to it. As utilities are forced to use unreliable, costly “green” sources of electricity, there will be many “wildfire risk” excuses for regular blackouts.

The power lines fail in high winds and start afire, the forest is and has been wildly overgrown for 15 years, millions of tons of dead trees. brush. All of it Forbidden by Law and Court Decisions to clean up and manage.

12,000 people lose their homes from the raging, out of control wildfire fueled bu all this mismanagement of our forests, so they SUE the Power Company and force them into Bankruptcy.

If I ran the Power Company I would DISCONNECT your Power PERMANENTLY, all the Transmission Lines from the Power Plant would be on EBAY tomorrow. You want Electricity you BUY and MAINTAIN the Lines from OUR PLANT!!!

No that is what happened to those who ignored days and days of warnings, did not prepare and then were surprised when the power went off. We’re two days into this and it’s kind of fun. Like camping.

Is this something out of an Ayn Rand novel, or what?

You mean like in the Twilight Zone episode where a couple of martians decided to stir up chaos on earth by shutting off the power?

Yeah, I can believe it.

Just like the fires, CA is going to blame someone else other than themselves.
Look for more lawsuits against PGE

This article is hysterical. Also cell phone service is not affected.

Panic sells.

It will only speed up progressives fleeing California and bringing the infection of their Left wing politics to further harm the rest of us.

Soon what will remain will see to be the homeless, the ever more entitled and/or belligerent Illegal Aliens, the very rich and the people in east California.
