  2. A decade ago when the electricity was turned off in Venezuela for +8 hours a day for months, I think it was to promote socialism and all its glories.

    1. As a friend working in Cuba once quipped in response to the principal socialist slogan, typically painted on buildings and billboards, “Socialism or death; I’ve been here two years and I still can’t decide!”

  3. Pretty sure its very hard to have enough exactly enough power capacity that its only occasional and not regular.

    Specially as when you need it you need it bad.

  5. All it takes is one of the pG&E feeders from out of state having to be turned off because of the potential of wildfires, and california will find out.

  6. Turn the power off during a heat wave? No air-conditioning? That could be enough to drive people to vote conservative.

    A lot less hot air.

  11. When I grew up … a hot summer was pure bliss. Nothing better than splashing in a pool, going to the schoolyard to play baseball … sweet, sweet, summertime.
