But Dear Mr./Ms. Kish,
I thought your response to Tarus Balog was a good effort, but kinda missed the point entirely.
Just because you “PAY” for electricity, doesn’t make it a free market. The government sets the price. The government deals out the monopolies. The government ensures that it is “provided” to all the people. In Chatham County, we live on socialized electricity.
There is no competition. No free market.
I try not to use Government Electricity. I tend to make my own. Did you know that if I were to sell some of my electricity to you, it would be illegal? That would be the government again.
Why is it that the far right loves socialized electricity, but can’t stand socialized medicine?
