Bohemia Energy, one of the biggest electricity and gas suppliers in the Czech Republic, halted operations on Wednesday to become the largest group in the country to buckle under a Europe-wide jump in energy costs.

Benchmark European gas prices have soared this year because of factors such as low stocks, infrastructure outages and high demand in Asia, lifting power prices to record highs.

"With regret, we have to announce that the Bohemia Energy Group is, with immediate effect, ending supplies of electricity and gas to the Czech energy market," the company said on its website on Wednesday. It was set up and controlled by businessman Jiri Pisarik, who was listed by Forbes as worth 8.3 billion Czech crowns this year.

Without modifying nature, man dies. In order to survive, he must be free. Statist control and regulation leads to economic destitution, where the environment is sewage down the streets and water that kills you. Statism inevitably leads to trbal war, as each clan progressively uses the coercive power of the state, by proxy, to enforce their desire on all, who then circle the wagons around their group, and counter. And it spirals, as you observe.
