@kevinrns@mstdn.social @Su_G@aus.social @sheddi@mstdn.party @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org They certainly are hated. But reinventing the entire system would require actual leadership on the issue, unfortunately. And with Newsom, Becerra, and virtually every other state elected benefiting from their soft money and direct donations, it would take some serious out-of-political-system effort to effect change for the positive.
PG&E is the textbook definition of #RegulatoryCapture

@ildiavolorosso@sfba.social @Su_G@aus.social @sheddi@mstdn.party @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org Sorry I think I misread you. Thanks for the warning. Yes its hard, It's hard for every issue. When Propublica exposes graft in housing in New Jersey, it is not to make sure everyone gives up on housing in new Jersey. News stories about intransigent political.machines should produce MORE effort, better directed effort. California has passed plug and play solar. Over utility objections. More, better, will be fought for.
