I think California should just nationalize all those industries. After all, that worked perfectly for socialist Venezuela. So it should also work for socialist California.

The utilities practically are state owned as a heavily regulated monopoly.

Its certainly true that the inherent liability risk, and political risk, for an energy utility in CA is extreme.

Publicly owned utilities, as in LA’s LADWP or Sacramento’s SMUD, are well shielded from these risks.

On the other hand the service territories PG&E and So Cal Ed are burdened with due to “obligation to serve” parts of their state charters are much more resource-intensive to service than these municipal utilities.
