The energy demand scam was just payback for all the contributions to get the Republicans elected... problem is they acted too quickly and got greedy. Had they inched the prices up over a two year period nobody would have noticed.

Isn't it odd Enron, a Texas company that had been one of the largest if not the largest contributor, may have made the most of California's problems? In an interview they said they were as confused as everyone else why prices jumped so much at the California border. Its doubly odd then, how huge increases in profits doesn't draw intense internal investigations the same way a sudden drop in profits would.

Last, isn't it odd that OPEC didn't react to the post election energy crisis by pumping more.. a lot more. You'd think they'd volunteer to help out the son of the many who liberated Kuwait?

Perhaps they knew from their own shipping data that there wasn't really a crisis
