PG&E: We'll Bury 10,000 miles of Electric Powerlines

      Sure. In the next 5 years? Sure. And  money grows on trees. The power monopoly that provides power to 16 million residents in Northern California is trying to raise some funds to finance the company's pledge to fix the infrastructure that failed when a few sparks lit off some wildland fires since 2018. The company plead guilty to manslaughter in the deaths in the town of Paradise where 86 residents lost their lives in the Camp Fire. Then there was the Sonoma County blaze that destroyed more than 3000 homes a year later. Oh, woe, woe, woe. Poor stock holders. Play with matches, get burned. I thnk it's time to bring in outside help. This corporation cannot serve two masters: stockholders and customers. One or the other. The CPUC, the overseer of monopolies here in California should be sent packing. It cannot serve two masters: corporations and citizens/taxpayers/customers. Gov. Newsom: he cannot serve 2 masters: corporations and voters. Throw the bums out.

     Maybe next time.
