It seems very much like a Texan good 'ol boys club. At least, that's my best attempt at understanding the root causes of the dysfunction here?

Sounds very similar to Californians PGE. It’s run like a dumpster fire ($0.30/kWh which is ridiculous) and the system is falling apart.

The best part is the governor complains yet PGE can’t restock toilet paper without CPUC approval and guess who sits on CPUC? The governors appointees.

I think the root cause may be a retail market for something that should be a public utility?
