Don’t get me started on the Texas electric market.
They did that to themselves and it could have easily been prevented.

Deregulated energy markets always cause problems. California and rolling blackouts are another example of it.

That’s not deregulation.

California and Texas are not models of energy market DE-regulation. They are models of centralized control and anti-capitalist market interference by subsidizing substandard renewables.

ha are you freaking joking? California REGULATED themselves into the dark. It’s an example of total regulation by leftist government.

Do you even live in Texas? I have been here for forty plus years and I can tell you our problems were only recently created by left wing policies that forced the closing of multiple coal power plants and introduced the commie LIE of wind and solar energy. We also ceded control of the grid to a bunch of left wing kooks with Ercot. Why do you think so many of them resigned? They are running for cover to avoid having to answer questions about what they were up to.
