Nothing is shitty enough that the government can't make it worse.

True, the US is in much better shape than many other countries that don't have the bandwith.
For now at least, until the price controls come online.
@CapitalB
No point. Just another good use of price controls.
Switzerland had electricity price controls forever. Eastern Europe had it unto some years ago (now free market) and there was one of the most stable grids.
Again, what is your point?
Weird answer. Maybe you couldn't read my message so i will repost:

@Zeb I don't think this article does justice to the electrical grid. It's more of a fear mongering article betting on people not knowing how electricity is generated. Temporary blackouts could happen, but as long as there's fuel, that system will stand. Just look at all these data centres. They consume a lot of electricity and yet our problem with them is cooling.
Also, I just looked it up and the USA only use 35% of it's theoretical maximum electricity output. So yeah, you'll be fine.
