    Blackouts too. No, the reason is a simple one. The SDTC has decided to destroy power plants in favor of wind and solar, the two most expensive sources of electric power, watt for watt. Further, they have now tapped the power from Hoover dam so much that Lake Mead is getting too low to generate power there anymore.

    It will get worse for the SDTC.

    Sure. I'll blame the fucking Democrats.

    The fucking Democrats have dismantled power stations in favor of solar and wind, expensive piddle power.
    The fucking Democrats interfere with energy markets...fascism.

    Pivot fallacy. The problems caused by Democrats include dismantling power plants and interfering with energy markets, not shown on this chart.

    Straw man fallacy. Not a factor, since most places simply expanded their power generating capacity.
