First off, let's stop the lie about this being a private sector problem exclusively.
Yes, we have some private electric companies. I get my power from one, for example.
And we have public, ie Government-ran electric providers.
In my house, we had alot less power outages than my friends and family in Austin under Austin Energy, the government provider.
As to water, we also have a private company providing that, while those in the Austin city limits have Austin Power, which is the Government.
We never lost water, while everyone I know in Austin either lost water and got it back on, or they still have no water.
Below are links to Austin Power and Austin Water showing they are indeed Government utilities, and not private companies.

We need to get the facts out, not lies by political hacks and cheerleaders.
I hope this helps clear up some of the lies being told on this forum on this subject.
And as to me starting this thread as opposed to commenting on the existing ones; the other threads were started by a political cheerleader with most of the non-superfan forum users (including myself) on Ignore, so he cannot be challenged on his lies.
