You make my point exactly. Once deregulated, they can fake shortages and jack up prices. Who's to know? And it's not even against the law. So long as they have no competitors they can do what they like. And they did. Everyone knows the power industry was #1 behind Bush from the beginning. Joining with oil, gas and other interests they could collude to create a targeted energy shortage. Meanwhile Cheney and Bush could assure OPEC that cutting production was fine and fit right into their agenda, of dismantling environmental laws by creating fears of more shortages. Everyone wins except US consumers and the environment.
