Do you think your State would have handled a crisis better?

As millions of Texans fought to survive brutal winter weather without power and water, Gov. Greg Abbott told residents Wednesday to search for emergency warming shelters on Google and to call 311 for additional assistance. Why is basic communication so hard? ... Copied to Clipboard!

They definitely failed on the communication front and refusing to take responsibility for anything. Austin has had two press conferences and sent several big blanket emails with platitudes about "unprecedented times" but no information about what failed and why (particularly with local water), had to get all that from elsewhere on the internet.

Unsure. My province is run by a buffoon who decided not to shut down immediately when covid got bad leading to one of the worst outbreaks in my country. Currently, he's succeeding at privatizing the hydro industry here.

Even states like Arkansas and Mississippi have a better way of handling such storms.
this proves that the ideologues (pushing for almost inexistent government investment, extreme deregulation and low taxes while leeching off federal money) rendered the state incapable of doing the typical activities the state should do. the state is supposed to serve its constituents, it is not supposed to be a revenue generating mechanism for its own existence and nothing else. The major that said we dont owe you anything, not electricity, nor water said the silent part loud. so much for Texas being the Republican answer to California or New York --- Welcome to the Spore Store!
