that you would have to take up with them,,Or maybe, just maybe, it's crazy but hear me out, is it possible they could declare a slightly smaller profit and actually do the job they are supposed to be doing?
they have to put profits first,, otherwise they should just close the doors..No, but they have a stellar record on putting profits first. As should be expected in a purely capitalist society.
While clearing away overhanging branches and trees is to be expected in a socially responsible society!
Has it? I mean has it really? ERCOT doesn't exactly have a stellar record for either following through on promises or telling the truth.
Maybe someone should check.
As is winterization of your equipment in winter to prevent failures.No, but they have a stellar record on putting profits first. As should be expected in a purely capitalist society.

I have a natural gas/propane powered backup generator. Kansas power companies don't have the best record either.that you would have to take up with them,,
for now I think it best for people to not depend on other people for their survival,,,
they can always put solar or a windmill on their house,,
Yes of course and it could be illegal for a CEO to order it be done.Depends on the area. Where there are tons of trees, that shit is easier said than done.
Exactly what I suggested my friend!Plus of course, you moron, trees don’t get trimmed for free. It would cost an assload of additional money.
Yes of course. That's how capitalism works and none dare challenge the concept!This would be passed along to the customers. Folks don’t wish to pay forever more and more money.
Clearly the company has the right to recover the additional cost of tree maintenance. The company only needs to ensure that there's no competition that bids to do it cheaper. (danger!) (eliminating competition is not capitalism) (that's socialism)I don’t know what kind of economic world you infest. But you cannot demand both that the company pay the additional costs AND that it not recoup that cost of conducting its business.
That doesn't stop the individual from coming up with contingency plans...What you don't understand is they just gave them carte blanche not to plan at all.
Their responsibilities lie with the shareholders.This thread is about the responsibilities of public energy companies.
Summer is not winter, just in case you didn't realize...
The people consistently lose in Texas.A lose for the people of texas.
Judges have ruled the power utility has no responsibility to ensure power remains on in emergencies, paving the way for more cheapskaring on maintenance an winterization to keep the stockholders happy.
250 people died in the big blackout 3 years ago, and this will likely shield the utility from those lawsuits as well.
Texas power plants have no responsibility to provide electricity in emergencies, judges rule
A panel of judges has said that big power companies cannot be held liable for failure to provide electricity during the 2021 blackout. The reason is Texas’ deregulated energy market.www.kut.org

Whatever. Not clear what you’re babbling about at this point.Yes of course. That's how capitalism works and none dare challenge the concept!
A concession. Good.Clearly the company has the right to recover the additional cost of tree maintenance.
Whatever your babbling now is clouded by your intoxication. Or maybe it’s drug abuse. Either way, you are a spokesman for the Canadian Gibberish League.The company only needs to ensure that there's no competition that bids to do it cheaper. (danger!)

No. They aren’t but that’s a topic for another thread, you dork.Unions are a necessary part of free market capitalism.
Zzz. Start a thread on the Commie view of Unions. Otherwise, your off topic braying is of no use.Wit unions dere is sterenth!
Of course they don’tA lose for the people of texas.

and they should do the same,,,I have a natural gas/propane powered backup generator. Kansas power companies don't have the best record either.
Yes but it's become more than just that. It's about the rights of a private power company to make more profit off the backs of the customers freezing their asses off in Texas.This thread is about the responsibilities of public energy companies.
they only make money on power they provide,, not power they dont,,Yes but it's become more than just that. It's about the rights of a private power company to make more profit off the backs of the customers freezing their asses off in Texas.
And it's about government ordering socially responsible business practices that are amenable to both the company and the customer.
You got the point!What would be illegal, exactly? Use your words, you stupid commie Canuck fuck.
Congrats on recognizing that such work comes with costs and expenses.
Whatever. Not clear what you’re babbling about at this point.

You didn’t make a point. You lack the capacityYou got the point!
We can tell by your raging.
Just get those fkn trees out of the way and everybody but the big boss will be happy!
