\"When a company screws up so horribly, letting down literally millions of its customers and moreover promising to continue doing so for another decade (!), the obvious question is: Why don't they go out of business? Why doesn't a competitor grab their market share?\

The answer, of course, is that the California government forbids PG&E's customers from switching to a competitor.\"
