Would this be the industry collusion that
  (a) froze end user prices
      (nope, that was the stupid legislature)
  (b) didn't allow industry to hedge using long term futures contracts
      (nope, that was the stupid legislature)
 
or
  (c) the lack of quick approval for new power plants
      (nope, that was the eco-terrorists)
  (d) the lack of conservation
      (nope, that's the idiot "someone will bail me out" end users)
