I have often given you the true legislative history of California's "deregulation bill", but you deliberately ignore it, because you love to blame California Republicans.

The Republicans had a small majority in the Assembly, but the Democrats solidly controlled the Senate.

When you told the poster up above that he was wrong about who controlled the legislature at the time, you were wrong. Again.

It is true that the bill was originally introduced by Brulte, but it was quickly hijacked by the Dem Senator Steve Peace who headed the hearings on it and rammed his version down the throat of the Legislature. He used to brag that he was "The father of California De-regulation."

His bill was passed UNANIMOUSLY in both houses of the Legislature and sent to Wilson for signature.

You deliberately misstate the facts because of your vendetta. I'd far rather be a nitwit than a liar.

You have yet to show me anything (other than your own words) contrary to what I've posted.

The Republicans had a small majority LOL! in the Assembly, but the Democrats solidly controlled the Senate....

Well that doesn't say much for Republicans or having them in a majority or even Governor does it.

What if we had never deregulated?

“You’d still have a supply shortage and you wouldn’t have a (retail) rate cap, so prices would have skyrocketed,” said Sen. Jim Brulte, R-Rancho Cucamonga, the author of the 1996 law.

Actually that would make you the liar. Here's my copy and paste quote from post 25

"You are wrong. AB1890(Assembly Bill 1890) was authored by (R) Jim Brulte who was also Assembly Speaker when "the Republicans controlled the State Assembly in 1996"

Your showing your ignorance again "the legislature" includes the State Assembly. In order to control "the legislature" they would have to control both houses.....They didn't

Get it?
