ctown81 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I just realized something. You mean to tell me that while I was freezing during the winter storm and people telling me it's my fault because I did not have a generator, y'all secessionists were all nice and toasty under the national power grid? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveTV1 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I had three comforters and a dog. Plus I had on sweat pants under jeans, I should have bought some long johns, a shirt, a bathrobe, and two coats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just glad Longview is on the national grid, we had no problems. I feel bad for you and everyone who was on the Texas grid, this level of gross incompetence is unacceptable.

Because choosing your provider would actually be deregulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the power grid comment I made, so many people talk about how they hate socialism but yet they really benefited from it this past week. Trust me I know the difference between regulated and deregulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Are you talking about the grid that was so overloaded they had rolling blackouts? That’s was the Eastern Grid in Beaumont under Entergy. I myself use the Newton-Jasper Electric Co-Op. Our electricity is generated by moonshine stills and meth labs.. We had power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
