[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 781035, member: 789"] There’s not a singular reason why Texans lost power but if we don’t start attacking the root causes we’ll continue to see failures like we’ve had in California, Texas, New York, Illinois, etc. The culprits are the same old, same old: a. Inadequate investment- we squander tax dollars on BS & short critical infrastructure b. Stifling regulations- there’s no limit to the government insanity. We self-impose obstacles at a mindboggling rate. c. Inability to leverage technological gains- we fail to encourage R&D, etc. d. Strangled competition- our policies deter new entrants into the market, we become dependent on monopolies & government picks the winners & losers It’s really pretty fundamental. We’re eroding what made this country great & becoming like the EURO banana republics, etc that want us to be more like them. Events like this should make Americans take pause & evaluate the path we’re on. [/QUOTE]
