Liberals- the planet is warming and your children won't know what snow looks like. Texas believed them so shame on them?

Well said.

You know, I live in Vermont and during a really bad ice storm, we can be without power for a few days. I don't go blaming it on the power company, it is nature. What happened in Texas is probably 1 in every 50 - 100 years.

Every power generation class has issues. Main one, in terms of generation capacity offline is NatGas power plants, NatGas production is 1/2 what it was one week ago. Power plants were built with no local storage... because they’re designed to optimize profits not min outages

Or like, size could be a contributing factor.

Classic Republican governance: be lazy, feckless, cruel, give your rich sponsors free tax money, and then when disaster strikes, blame others instead of taking responsibility. And people actually vote for this Qrap.

Hiding the fact that the wind mills froze and their green agenda is failing ... helicopters were used to defrost them in Germany ... nitter.vloup.ch/breaking911/stat…

28° right now at midnight in Austin. 72 hours without power/heat or hot water and the ones lucky enough to have water have to boil it. Rick Perry does not speak for me when he says we’re ok with this if it means less regulation!

The 2009 financial crash was also a prime example of the downfalls of deregulation and privatization, but we refused to learn anything from that, so I assume we will learn nothing from this crisis either.

Or they’re heading off to Mexico for vacation like @tedcruz
