    Good, but I feel like they let PG&E off with a slap on the wrist. I’m not 100% sure they were 100% responsible for that fire, but I do believe they were more negligent than they were fined for. Nothing “personal” against PG&E or anything like that but I feel like they could have had better safety regulations that may or may not have prevented that one big fire a few years back.

      PG&E went broke, with shareholders losing everything, and the victims ending up with ownership of the firm

        Is what should have happened. Instead, bankruptcy protection shed debts, and now they’re more profitable than ever before… CPUC has failed the people it was created to protect.
