Once again you hit the nail on the head. Way 2 go girl. *********
How is that "Eh Pa'Lante Que Vamos" going?
Leonel es un ladron,
Power companies like the ones in DR already have done the same in other countries, even in the USA. Don't you recall ENRON?
ENRON was intentionally creating the ROLLING BLACKOUTS in California by shutting down power plants due to "MAINTENANCE". The goal was to create the appearance of a low supply of energy and a HIGH DEMAND to push PRICES up!!!

Ahora los perrunos pphachunos se la privan de comer M, and you still think the GOVERNMENT is the cause? No, the government can be blamed for letting it happen but the REAL DEVILS are the people that handle the GENERATORS.

How can you compare the occasional black-out in USA with much of the Banana Republic, where the power is off more than it is on, and nearly everyone has an inverter and a bank of batteries?
Manito Lie-onel's ideological father Balaguer allowed Enron to get a foot in the Dominican electrical door and then he opened the door wide open in 1998 to ROLLING PURPLEOUTS!
I sense a lack of common sense or misguided ignorance between you two. The point here are not the actual blackouts, but the EVIL behind the power companies and what they willing to do, heck, what they have done to F everyone for more money!
