        Was it ever? I admit my contemporary US education was crafted to make me a good, dutiful citizen. However even it couldn’t make the shit we’ve done throughout our history seem great. Nor could it identify a period of time as an era of “our greatness”.

        We have always been either stealing our neighbors stuff. Or shitting on what little we left them with, telling them they should be thankful for the privilege of having to clean it up.

      This comes to mind whenever I hear someone say that the US is the greatest country in the world.

      Presumably the whole network will feel the pinch, because cities paying the tariff directly will try to by from neighbouring grids.

      Xcel (MN) makes a lot of money being situated on the border. They are paid for every megawatt that traverses through its lines to states that don’t share a border.

      The three states affected are basically the states that border Ontario. If North Dakota imports electricity, it will come from Manitoba not Ontario.

URL format

Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.

[Opinion] prefix

Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.

Country prefix

Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.
