| Message | OVP concurs with Art. 02. However, don't you think power generation would be much efficient, faster and easier to maintain if it is federalized? Using an analogy of series circuit versus parallel circuit: In a series circuit, every device must function. A set of light bulbs in series with one bulb burning out, kills the circuit. In parallel, every light has its own circuit, so all but one light could be burned out, and the last one will still illuminate. |
