I agree that CA's current budget woes are not entirely because of the energy problem. Overspending during the 'flush' years has caught up. That, combined with the sharp downturn, has hit us hard.

However, that does not excuse the energy bandits, nor the FERC which refuses to make them pay back what they robbed. If the robber was a mobster, we could seize his assets. But, apparently, energy companies can get off without full restitution because...hmm, why is it?
