Comments

the way electricity works physically (coupled with the way societies have been built around it being readily available) makes it fundamentally impossible to manage through market force

This is anti-scientific woo. Both theoretically and empirically market-based electricity systems are much more efficient, that's why even China is adopting one: https://www.enerdata.net/publications/daily-energy-news/chin...

This is anti-scientific woo.

This is hilarious coming from someone defending a concept that assumes neither thermodynamics nor Maxwell's laws exist.

Both theoretically

When making preposterous hypothesis you can prove literally anything to be efficient.

and empirically

Ah yes, like the PJM and the European market are “empirically efficient”.
