The power went out at my house last night, the whole block was without power.

I looked at my electric company's updates and it said "equipment failure"

Are we buying our transformers and grid shit from China now? Or did a nigger try stealing live copper coils?

This is the 4th time this year the power went out on my block, what is going on, things didn't used to be like this. Usually we'd only see a rare power outage from a storm. Now it's become a common montgly occurrence. How can America call itself a first world country when it can't even keep the lights on?
