And as usual, the poster child is DOGMATICALLY GREEN, ULTRA-LIBERAL California.
The US’s fool’s paradise of VIRTUOUS FANTASIES.
Can the GOLDEN STATE implode any faster?
Blackouts Loom in California as Energy Prices are ‘Absolutely Exploding’
A few “golden” nuggets:
- “Two inexorable energy trends are underway in California: soaring electricity prices and ever-worsening reliability – and both trends bode ill for the state’s low-and middle-income consumers.”
- “In 2020, California’s electricity prices jumped by 7.5% . . . .”
- “California policymakers are providing a case study in how not to manage an electric grid. Furthermore, that case study shows what could happen if policymakers at the state and federal levels decide to follow California’s radical decarbonization mandates, which include a requirement for 100% zero-carbon electricity by 2045 and an economy-wide goal of carbon neutrality by 2045.“
- “The specter of more blackouts is yet more bad news for California’s beleaguered consumers. Between 2010 and 2020, the state’s electricity prices jumped by 39.5%, which was, the biggest increase of any state in the U.S. Even more worrisome: California’s electricity rates will soar over the next decade.”
- “Meanwhile, the state’s renewable plans are being thwarted by rural Californians who don’t want wind and solar projects in their neighborhoods.”
- “The punchline here is clear: the blackouts and high electricity prices that are plaguing California provide a neon-lit warning sign about the electric reliability and energy affordability crises that loom if policymakers attempt to decarbonize our economy too quickly.“
No wonder Californians are leaving in droves. Trouble is, they’re heading for TEXAS. Have they not read O’Hara’s Appointment in Samarra? They should. Someone’s waiting for them.
Golden State, my butt.
TRY CLUSTERFUCK STATE!
