Sadly, this is a true statement. The citizens of Texas are getting what they voted for. Even if my state offered to help with electricity, which it did in 2021, it isn't allowed because the state of Texas outlawed the help, saying: "Federal tax-dollar help, we don't need no stupid Federal tax-dollar help!" (sorry, went Blazing Saddles.) People died and the gov said it would never happen again, then made practically no changes to grid.

Supposedly, the policy was created to keep the energy groups from more fed regs and taxes. In the mean time, it's roll the dice with the weather forecast and peoples lives.
