[quote:Lowkey Cyberpunk:MV80MTYxNTU0Xzc1NjEyNjUwXzcyRUVFRTg3] Well, after an 11 billion dollar judgement someone is gonna look at the forecast for winds over the next week and muse whether it's worth risking another multiple billion dollar payout or lose a few million in income. I'm sure they have some kind of income recovery fee included in their bills anyways to cover these contingencies. It really is Bartertown and we are forced to do business with them if we don't want our very homes to be condemned for not being tied to the grid. Now if I were left to my own devices... <VBEG> 100 retropoints to anyone who knows what that last acronym means. [/quote]

Regarding the Kalifornia power fiasco:
What the fuck?
The power company is there to deliver power and make a profit.
They get neither with this decision someone made.
The government's job is to protect its citizens and collect revenue.
They're getting neither. They're losing tax payments and are not strong-arming the power company into doing its job.
So who's the man behind the curtain pulling their strings?
