California created the crisis, made it worse, and then blamed everyone but themselves.
It's really a textbook example of how not to interfere in the free market.

Yep.
One of the Los Angeles tabloids (LA Weekly) had a great, lengthy
article about the CA energy imbroglio.
Apparently a Texas state legislator visited CA lawmakers because
Texas was also about to re-engineer their power system.
On the way to CA, the Texan did some doodling on the napkins he
got with his airline meal and informed his hosts
"Hey, your new system can be 'gamed'.
You might want to do something about that."
The CA lawmakers didn't; the rest is history.
