This isn’t particularly unique to Texas. It happens in any lopsided state. You can inverse it an perfectly describe the California political landscape.
Constant rolling power outages, cast blame on corporations, and then tell people it’s actually a good thing that everything is falling apart - with lots of vague assertions about moving to a green future.

- jasonboyd 4y agoI don't know the answer but we have had some very tragic fires in California the last few years that can be attributed to the power _company's_ failure to maintain their equipment.
