Subject:  RE: [thechat] "Democracy can be bad for you"


But his greatest achievements, from the industrial sector's point of view,
have
been his actions as governor of Texas. While governor, he allowed
antiquated oil
refineries to operate on contracts that have been grandfathered for over
TWENTY
FIVE years, which has resulted in very high pollution levels and lower
efficiency than modern plants. He has privatized the power producers in the
state, with the effect being rising energy costs, decreasing sevices, and
decreased spending on new power plants and maintenance of existing plants.
Just
like California. (hopefully it won't reach the point Cali has) Now the
energy
producers are making money hand over fist and all the while bemoaning the
state
of the energy sector.

Can you tell I'm angry about this? I'm afraid that he will have a similar
effect
on the country as a whole.
