This is why the government requires you to have long term finances that can be used to prevent a disaster long term due to financial issues.

I think you make a good case for making energy production a public utility. Private ownership of essential services is ethically bankrupt. The fact that a company can fail and leave people without core services, is disgusting in my opinion. Even more disgusting is that they almost always seek public funds to bail them out.
