> It's as if trucking companies flooded the highways with so many trucks that people couldn't commute to work anymore. Funnily, that's precisely what happened to America's rail network. Enterprise demanded unlimited right of way to the point that it's laughable to even consider transit by rail these days. It's going exactly as well as you'd imagine. I expect our power infrastructure is going to be treated exactly the same as our rail infrastructure: legacy public assets to be exploited indefinitely[0] for free[1] profit, and never invested in until failure becomes an existential threat[2] [0] until next quarter [1] losses are the public's problem [2] unless the government bails you out |
