First off, obeying federal regulations is the only chance Texas has beyond anything but rampant pollution by corporations eventually cleaned up and paid for by taxpayers. Look at the fucking flaring in Texas and the complete lack of giving a shit about it at all.
Second when I hear dumbassery of "cheaper rates" its.... you guessed it, a fucking lie. Because the costs are simply not factored in correctly. Fuck up, freeze the state solid and who picks up that tab? individual homeowners, and of course the cost burden shifted to.... the fucking taxpayers.
I used to be a card carry Republican. My boss hired me away from my old employer so I would not take Karl Rove's business away from him. The GOP hasn't solved a single fucking problem of any magnitude that I can think of in the last 30 years. We are still waiting on the GOP health plan. it's all lip service, and distraction.
The electrical grid is a pretty fucking big deal and we got more action on trying to criminalize the danger of transgender parents trying to help their child the best way they know how, than was expended to fix the electrical grid. Anyone's electrical bill falling? Anybody incur expense or loss of income do the electrical grid crashing? Anyone get a bail out from Governor Abbott via bond sales? Like his energy supporters are all getting? Just curious.
Again i just wish for one fucking time in my lifetime I could point to a solution to an actual problem that matters! If there is some great problem the GOP in Texas has fixed in the last 30 years, please, please, please let me know what it was?
