NY Blackout Special Edition
Quick Quiz: What is the media�s most likely take on the blackout:
- The �complexity� and �chaos� of the market is unsuitable for an �essential� need like electricity.
- The blackout was caused by America�s over-reliance on fossil fuels � we need to reduce our electricity use and move to renewable energy sources.
- The minor looting and small number of deaths caused by the blackout is a sure sign that we can trust the government to protect our lives.
- The Democrats haven�t found a way to blame the Bush administration for it, but they�re going to have something soon.
- The blackout is an inevitable consequence of a heavily regulated, price-controlled, forcibly monopolized, and eco-crazed power industry.
