      Until it fails from yet another once-in-a-century ice storm this decade. But they’ll probably blame meteorologists for getting the once-in-a-century “wrong” rather than understand the effects of climate change.

      It is not because of what you think it is. They love the privatization of everything here its just for more capital. I’ve only ever lived in deep red states my whole life and have never had the power go out nearly as much as it does here. Can’t wait to leave this shithole.
