There was another infamous regime where little rats used to snitch on their teachers.
The Left's High School Teacher of the Year

Conman, you've been conned again. It sounds like one of the "30% illiterate southern inbreds" you speak of, such as Ted Turner.
I'm glad you agree that when the left "tells it how it is," they are "just losing it" and are going "off on a tangent or something."Quote from acronym:
If i recall, i went to school at some point, it really made your day to see a teacher just lose it, and go off on a tangent about something.
Im glad you agree, the left "tells it how it is".
The interesting thing is, this is exactly what the mainstream DNC is promoting. These are the folks that got Dean in. Previous to the `04 elections, they thought Bush had already built concentration camps for them, would cancel the `04 elections, impose martial law and reinstate the draft.
You can read all about it if you wish. Plenty of examples there.

Enron power shortages ? I guess you mean here in Cali ?
The point about that is.... the power shortages here never should have happened in the first place, they were because of the Democrats interfering in free trade to get some votes...
Dems wanted to look good to their liberal buddies.
Enacted legislation that supposedly deregulated the power companies, allowing for free competition - lower prices.
However, it prevented the power companies from increasing their rates.
Building new plants was tough.
Power companies had to buy their energy from outside sources, but weren't allowed to pass on the increase to their customers.
They about went bankrupt and because of that and the state had to step in and buy power at increased prices.
So now, instead of the big consumers paying for their electricity at increased prices, and perhaps encourage thriftiness, the taxpayers get to subsidize them....
Thanks Democrats.....
So what is it? Free competition, lower prices, higher prices? Is it supposed to make any sense?
FYI
The deregulation of the California energy market was supported by both parties in the California legislature and signed into law by then-Governor Pete Wilson in 1996.

Free competition usually results in lower prices - correct..
And in the form that both parties supported, it was exactly that. But like it says in your article, in 2000, wholesalers were deregulated, but not the retailers, right ? It's right there in your own article..... See the diff? It's not a free market after the Dems screwed it up.
Dems made that promise to get votes from all the liberals that wanted to 'reign in' big business. In the case, the power retailer. Believe me, it was a popular cause here...
No other businesses were affected negatively,by regulating power costs. But mom and pop voter thought it was great....
Until Cali had to buy power from Enron, etc.....
We got tired of the Dem foolishness here and booted Davis and voted in the Governator. That's also why I say thanks Dems...
What part of
"The deregulation of the California energy market was supported by both parties in the California legislature and signed into law by then-Republican Governor Pete Wilson in 1996."
do you not understand?
Right. Wholesale prices were deregulated and wholesale prices went up. Kudos to price lowering free competition.
