Nearly 6 Million Housholds Had Power Turned Off During The Pandemic

Utility companies in the U.S. have disconnected customers an estimated 5.7 million times since 2020, according to a new report.
The disconnections have come even as those companies have paid billions to shareholders and executives, according to a report published on Monday by the Center for Biological Diversity, BailoutWatch and the Energy and Policy Institute.

It's downright criminal the rates the Louisiana Public Service Commission is approving for these energy companies here.
Customers have to pay for all the infrastructure damage from every hurricane in addition to high fuel adjustment and record high rates from "Electric charge"( company profit).
When I moved here 4.5 years ago, EC charge was 5.5cents/kWh. My total cost for electricity was 9.9cents/KWh including fuel adjustment, hurricane recovery fee, and service charges.
This month my total cost was 18.8cents/KWh.
EC=9.8 cents.
Fuel adjustment =4.0cents(down from a high of 6.5 cents)
The rest in fees and hurricane recovery charges.

during ice storm Uri, Kinder Morgan made a profit of $1,000,000,000. the reason they made so much is they were selling the gas at $125 per thousand cubic feet. and paying the royalty owners .2399

It has been a serious issue for my entire life. Apparently, it is one without a solution. A concerted effort to conserve household use only results in higher power bills. Replacing lights with LED's only gets you higher power bills, plus the additional cost of the LED's.

This year, they've jacked up power bills so high, it really is criminal theft, and a lot of people can't or won't pay it.

Re: Nearly 6 Million Housholds Had Power Turned Off During The Pandemic
In my opinion, it is fascist conspiracy between the energy sector and government for their New World Order to eliminate ownership of property, since if you don't pay your bills, eventually they will get your house. Isn't that correct? If they end up owning everyone's property, they can do anything they want, I suppose. But who knows? I don't really see it happening although it works on paper.
And there's one crucial problem they've overlooked in such a plan, and it's why they want to confiscate firearms.

At street level, all anyone really needs to know is that the crooked communist moron Biden is on their side, and he's all about getting to Xi's goal of eliminating property ownership as quickly as possible.
Now, consider communism from that perspective. It sucks bad as they conceive it, doesn't it? They will do everything they can to make sure the people on top stay there.

This is all tied to energy instability. Energy instability is caused by stupid government policy and corruption. Energy price hikes make everything thing more expensive. Bad energy policy = inflation.

It's the base determining factor for all inflation .Crusader wrote:This is all tied to energy instability. Energy instability is caused by stupid government policy and corruption. Energy price hikes make everything thing more expensive. Bad energy policy = inflation.
From harvest, to manufacture, to delivery.
