Government intervention in energy markets raises serious concerns about fair competition. When regulatory agencies use their authority to favor specific industries rather than maintain neutral oversight, we see the blurring of public interest and private gain. History shows us that when state power and corporate interests become too intertwined—where government actively advocates for favored players—the market loses its ability to function transparently. This concentration of power deserves scrutiny. Energy policy should prioritize fair market conditions and competition, not industrial patronage. The question isn't just about one agency's mandate, but about the broader principle: can regulatory bodies remain impartial when they're expected to champion particular sectors?
