Enron and the California Energy Crisis Essay by Master Researcher

This political study examines the political dimensions of the Californian Energy Crisis and the fall of Enron. By realizing the serious issues of energy monopolies and the problem of regulation in the state and national political arena, one can understand how little is being done to prevent a crisis in an unregulated free market economy. The writer looks at a lack of government prevention and regulation issues that caused the major energy crisis in California, the lack of political responsibility by the Bush Administration, Gray Davis, and Governor Schwarzenegger that all help to support criminal and unethical business practices in politics.
