"Management by private enterprise" is what got them in the $4.5B hole in the first place. Freezing the rates and forcing them to give up full control of power generation was the state penalty for poor management instead of allowing the utility to casually pass on all the costs of their poor management to rate payers......or would your vision of unfettered free enterprise simply allow them to do so as a reward for their excellent vision and execution.

third, the utilities were the bad guys and had no choice. Those who made the decision were politician trying to manage what should be
managed by private enterprise. The politician once again had their communist heads up their communist butts.

Some of the Democratic politicians have actually been using phrases such as "5 year plans" to describe the ideas. It is very disturbing.
