We can take lessons from flood insurance. Efforts to subsidize can distort incentives such that homes are rebuilt in flood zones.

I really hope PG&E can cut down the time needed for these outages.

We can take lessons from physics: economics are nothing more than the ideology of politically advantaged humans.

We’re under no political obligation to keep enabling the private control of our collectively built and maintained communities.

When do the hand outs to these screw ups stop?

“Nothing more” is quite a serious stretch that you won’t be able to prove, and that destroys the rest of your argument
