They had the same lazy careless mistake in 2011 and were told then how to fix it .... and did not heed the advice.

That is why I think it bullshit that the lawmakers are trying to blame the people they put in charge to carry out the very policies that the lawmakers wanted.

Well they sure wouldn't want to be in Chicago. Chicago's winter temperatures make what you experience in Texas feel like spring. I grew up in Illinois an hour away from Chicago I've experienced -20 and that was every year. So just how cold did it get in Texas?

Near-zero w/ a windchill near -10. It sucked, but yeah, I've seen colder.

I was the only one on the block with a snow shovel. Spent the whole week digging people out and showing them how to thaw their pipes.

No different than wanting the best of the best in military industrial complex yet not wanting to pay the tr axes to cover that want.

One day that's it, lol. That's a heat wave in Chicago sometimes. Imagine if it snowed a few feet.

In this uncertain world you have to learn to improvise and adapt.
