California officials said the firm's price manipulation cost consumers $3.7 billion.I wonder how they arrived at that number.
"The body that passes government", (california) exponentially raised prices for us all in 2000.
Me too. In another article [not posted] on the subject, it was estimated that El Paso trading division made "over one hundred million" dollars on this so-called "scam".
My guess is that California made up the $3 billion figure just like they did the $9 billion that the "energy pirates" owed them: because it sounded good in press releases.
