    I am so sick and tired of paying these bastards for burning down California and killing people in explosions. Maintaining your damn equipment to safety standards is a bare minimum for doing business, not an excuse to raise rates. It’s become absurd.

    How is this not an anti-trust investigation? It’s a clear cut monopoly.

      They went bankrupt earlier, they need to be forced to sell their lines to pay their debts.

          They didn’t “declare bankruptcy,” they filed for Chapter 11 which is meant for reorganizing. It puts a hold on collections to allow the company to get its finances in order. It’s not for outright dismissing debts the way personal bankruptcy would.
