Bearcat, California taxpayers were subsidizing Enron and other energy providers, not the consumers. The high prices were not the fault of high demand or low supply, but rather manipulation by Enron and others with the bought permission of government. Let's just be thankful that this scheme collapsed before spreading to all states and let's hope that our state officials learned enough to avoid future scams.
