Don't agree Zoltan! I am against gov't regulation for the most part, but it seems to work for the power companies. I have only experienced the situation in CA as I have not live in any other state. Worked much better before the half assed attempt at deregulation. Affordable, consistent, predictable. That is how it was before (and how it should be), and PGE/Cal Edison made good profits and treated their shareholders well. Maybe it is just that CA did the de-regulation poorly, but it was much better before.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

"The truth" would never make sense to someone who chooses to listen to political rhetoric that is designed to obscure the facts.

California represents 1/5 to 1/6 of the WORLDS economy. If the economy here in Ca is destroyed, every other state in this country will have a negative economic impact. It would be in the best interests of every American for this problem to be resolved.

Roger Babb has stated that he is a conservative but he refuses to be blind-sided by the rhetoric as you have, Zoltan.

Zoltan, please name a de-regulated state with an average consumer power rate under 7 cents.
