Listen I don’t expect any Texans to have a snow blower and all weather tires, but if you wanna have an independent energy infrastructure, maybe the Texas government should’ve thought about worst case scenarios.


So I guess every single building should be built to protect itself against prolonged freezing, hurricanes, fire, tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, etc regardless of where they are located then?

I mean, you never know... maybe a hurricane will make its way to Kansas. Or Baton Rouge will get rocked by a massive earthquake.

OR you can be reasonable and protect yourself against what typical threats happen in your geographic region.

Absolutely correct. The story should be a 1 in a 1000 event happened and we didn’t plan for it, because it is friggin 1 in a 1000.

Except some are trying to throw blame anywhere they can to provide cover for a smart business decision because they might have to explain their decision.

Why are you taking my statement COMPLETELY out of context? Texas has been hit by freezes before and has its energy infrastructure rocked. If you aren’t going to be connected to the national infrastructure you have to naturally take more precautions. Especially if they are simple precautions like insulating natural gas pipes.

Texas has to worry about freezes, because well it happens there and it’s going to happen again. Baton Rogue doesn’t have to worry about volcanos.
