    You are the one that brought up whether one was cheaper than another, so please stop lying and putting it me. Thanks, I appreciate it.
    You can carry on now. Everyone is now marveling at how superior you.

      Blah, blah, blah. Pot holes. Blah, blah, blah.

      Do you think the government should be in charge of supplying power to homes across the USA? Yes or no? I say no. See how easy that was for me to answer?

        They want govt to controll everything.
        I want to controll my life not some numbnuts in DC that eats 12$/qt ice-cream. I set a budget and I never go beyond that budget.
        Maybe I should controll the national budget.

          Let me ask you something?

          If you were in charge, would you send billions to countries that hate us or send billions to illegal aliens? Or would you spend my tax dollars on our infrastructure and other critical needs facing our country?

            It's odd that you post about a pothole in response to the power grid. But if say your post had nothing to do with the power grid, okay. lol
            He is just being an idiot. Either that or he doesn't realize that there are government agencies that regulate public utilities. In fact it is policies of the Texas Public Utility Commission that are allow electric utilities to charge "spot rate" prices during the great freeze that have resulted in Texans receiving bill in the $8,000 to $10,000 range. Spot Rate Definition

            Public Utility Commissions exist in most if not all states. They set the prices that a utility company may charge. In most states those prices are negotiated in advance and are set for usually a number of years with percentage increases scheduled during that time period. In some states they own/or and operate the power distribution grid. Often they are the one who direct rolling black out during peak usage. The mismanagement of the power grid was one of the reason the former California Governor Gray Davis was recalled in 2003.

            There are also individual cities they own and operate their public utilities. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is the largest municipal utility in the United States, serving over four million residents. Los Angeles Department of Water and Power - Wikipedia

              AMERICA FIRST.
              I would stop ALL aid to foreign cuntries.
              If someone wants to come to America, then have them enter the proper way: show they aren't a criminal, they can support themselves w/o government aid, they aren't sick and are willing to assimilate to our ways.
              Just like my families did.
              I want a smaller government that isn't in my back pocket.

                    bsm2 has been the most outspoken person on Covid deaths until Governor Cuomo was caught covering up the number of deaths in nursing homes across New York. Both democrats and republicans are calling on him to step down.


                    bsm2 has said nary a word on this issue which proves that he doesn't give a damn about Covid and only cares about Team Democrat.

                    Likewise, bsm2 doesn't give a damn about Texas or their power bill. This is all about TEAM DEMOCRAT. Give it a rest.
