TEXAS. you voted for candidates who don't care two hoots about your well being or the safety of your children.
As you suffer in the cold, hungry and thirsty, I hope you ponder on how this happened...
IT HAPPENED BECAUSE YOU ELECECTED RIGHT WING CONSERVATIVES WHO WANTED TO DERGULATE EVERYTHING. Which allowed the power plant operators to skimp on upgrades, and even to avoid winterizing their equipment. So
The decision to put Texas into their own privately run power grid and to extricate themsilves from any ties to the Federal grid... was another good move. Had they been connected they could have gotten them through the crises by buying power from other states. But NO they were too short sighted for this.
There is no climate crises in their world view so something like winterizing the equipment in the state was a waste of moeny.
And on top of all this TEd Cruz the slimy Republican senator cared so much about the problem he bustled his family off to Cancun until the whole thing was over. Way to go Teddy.
So in the enbd it is a sad situation for the citizens of TX. But I have little sympathy for them. They made their beds at the ballot box when they chose candidates with an "R" beside their name.
