This is the whole fucking purpose of Gaia.
Via ZH, more details on PGE's failure.
The important point is that the long powerlines failed ON THEIR OWN from lack of maintenance. There wasn't a windstorm or a lightning bolt. The insulators were just OLD.
PGE continually avoided NORMAL MAINTENANCE on long lines that were up to ONE HUNDRED YEARS OLD. The HV wire kept dropping into trees BECAUSE THE EQUIPMENT WAS OLD.
This is the ENTIRE FUCKING PURPOSE of the Gaian fraud. It was
originally set up in 1974 to help CIA replace civilization with a single global government, but most of its current practitioners are SHARE VALUE CORPORATIONS who use Gaia to
lay off their own FAILURES onto other companies like Exxon.
By normal sane standards it's a bizarre form of fraud. It wouldn't have worked before the propaganda branches of CIA had softened and melted our brains with 50 years of constant universal all-pervading brain toxin. No corporation in 1960 would have considered using religion to shake down other companies. GM wouldn't have used the doctrine of Consubstantiation to charge Lever Brothers for the Corvair's safety failures. Ford wouldn't have manipulated Premillenial Tribulation to bill Disney for the Pinto fires.
This time the trick isn't working for PGE. They finally bumped into an honest JUDGE who (so far) isn't buying the normal shit.

Footnote for clarity: In sane times, corporations and religions often manipulated the same aspects of human nature for their own purposes. (1) Unpopular people want to be popular and wealthy. Corporations used this desire to sell deodorant and clothing. Religions used it as the Prosperity Gospel. (2) Most folks don't want to die. Corporations used this to sell drugs and medical procedures. Religions used it to sell tithing and indulgences. These are
parallel forms of dishonesty. Now businesses
use religion as a tool for fraud.
