Lights could go out again anytime

Thailand used to be a house with a circuit breaker that kept tripping. People got fed up with flipping the switch back on.

Instead of trying to identify the real cause, one guy said to Hell with the breaker and bypassed it. Now people are happy – no more power disruption. They curse the breaker and praise the guy as a true hero. They don’t know or pretend not to know that the problem still exists and waits to erupt again.
Some folks are happy living in a house with no circuit breaker, but I’m kind of edgy.
