To me this is the same as California complaining that Texas wont sell them enough energy to prevent blackouts there during the summer. TUFF, build your OWN power plants in California if you want energy, build your own dams in California if you want water.

But, as long as other states keep enabling them, they will continue to push their environmental agenda of death on the rest of us.
OPEC 2 except with a much less diversified supply base. The left in its zeal to make us less dependent on foreign supplies of oil wants to make us even more dependent on rare earth metals. We are witnessing the predictable result of govenment control of a vital industry. Politicians have no stake in the result except for the next election. Even then, they have a host of scapegoats to blame for their ridiculous policies.
