This problem goes beyond capitalism. Even in a communist, socialist, anarchical, or whatever system you have to figure out a way to get people to spend a good portion of their lives doing things they don't typically want to do.

In this case how do you get hundreds of people to continue working at these power grid companies if they're in the red and eventually run out of money? People won't stay around without a paycheck.
