Calling that personal benefit when they were hit by a massive surge in supply pricing is shifting the blame a bit, no?
Realistically, since the creditors are probably private and the customers, which would otherwise face the loss, are the community, it's actually somewhat the reverse - privatized losses to the benefit of the community (which would otherwise need to pay off the surge in electricity pricing).
