CB, the irony of the situation is that it's California's mess, but their citizens aren't paying for their stupidity, everyone else is. They have price caps, so the Util's can't collect more money. The federal government steps in and orders the power suppliers to not cut off the Cali Ute's even though they know they will never get paid back. So who can they collect from? Well, other states where there aren't rigorous price controls, like my state thousands of miles away from Cali. Oh yeah, my $450 gas bill I just got pissed me off a little. Anyone that thinks this is not going to effect the economy is living in la la land.
