The price for electricity in Texas spiked from $22/kWhr to $10,000/kWhr simply because people needed it not to die, but please tell me how capitalism is noble and prevents human suffering.
Correction, the original article I believe CNN stated Kilowatt hours, but seems to be taken down. It's actually mWHRs, but the 450 times uptick is still accurate. Meaning if one day of power normally cost you $4 it would cost you $1800
