So, what do your "friends" think is wacko about the TX legislature? They only meet every other year and only for a few months then.
They're run by the fringe and most rank and file Texans are an afterthought. What makes the news and the chamber floor is all about who barks the loudest and longest (and pays off, er, lobbies) their elected officials. Just like the federal government, but with hats.
Several friends are cursing ERCOT right now for the power plant shutdowns due to heat. The plants don't work in the cold, they don't work in the heat, and the state won't buy electricity from other states to fill the need.
