Electricity Blackouts at the Turn of the Century

Throughout the first decade of the 21st century, the U.S.A. was plagued by a series of rolling and
complete blackouts due to a combination of: grossly, and some have suggested, deliberately, ineffective government regulation; and mismanagement and/or deliberate manipulation of electricity availability by energy companies, which profited enormously from price spikes in the wake of artificially induced shortages. This corporate tactic was, at the time, called Enroning, named after the company most noted for its use.
