nysc3141 says What is wrong with this world, companies trying to make money, and put its investors ahead of non paying customers.
timshel42 says how can they have a profit windfall when they can only charge the rate that the state allows them to? more surprise power consumption?
Reali5t says Honestly I don’t want to have my rates increased because somebody else isn’t paying their bill. I can barely afford my bills, I don’t need somebody else on my back next to the government.
