PG&E is a pawn of the legislature, they follow all the regulations as best they can and don’t exactly mint money. They cannot unilaterally decide to do “more” to prevent fires without CA allowing them to raise rates to pay for it. It’s not anything close to a free market. I think CA running electricity as a public service would be only good as an example to others not to make the same mistake.
