Since this time in 2022 my electric rate has gone up 20%. I expect it will go even higher. The damage done to the supply of power will not be recovered. Plants that were paid for are gone and replaced by higher cost and higher cost of fuel plants mandated by biden and epa.
Are you better off than you were four years ago? NOT ME.
Here in CT the state is doing vital work—putting tampons in boy’s rooms in schools.
Anyone who objects is a “dangerous extremist”.
Hey, don't be so cynical. Some boys have vagina's, too. sarc tag not included.
Basically, the climate hysterian lobby got Congress to break up the highly functional vertically integrated generation/delivery model so that the dysfunctional wind/solar generator schemers could elbow their way in, and it's all gone downhill since.
My Electric bills have doubled monthly since that sorry bastard Biden stole his way into office, so has my feed costs for cattle, horses and chickens..Had to cut down on the percentage of protein 3% just to keep them fed...An average bag of chicken feed has got from $6-7 a bag to $17 a bag...

I’m on the Ohio River. Since Obama’s ecoapparatciks began regulating coal fired plants to smithereens I’ve seen four of six with fifty miles of me shuttered. Miraculously, my electric bill hasn’t gone up. The W.Va. coal fields were 100 or so miles upriver. What a sweet, efficient system it used to be. The rural counties that were the home to these plants lost their largest employer and tax base. The W. Va. local economies are just as devastated. One of those plants was ten miles as the crow flies from me. Since its closure there has no change in the quality of my environment other than no more clouds of steam from the cooling towers.
It’s the same where we are.
Crazy.
Just finished watching an energy webinar an hour ago... the takeaway is that TPTB want to totally transition off of the so-called fossil fuels (and that process has already started) and to ‘electrify everything’.
My local utility (Rappahannock Electric ‘Coop’) charges a 50% surcharge for any amount of electricity beyond “80% of the typical American Household” between May 1st and October 1st. . .
Some of the clever Chinese pot growers that have infiltrated Maine have rigged their meters to only report ten percent or less of the actual usage. Otherwise the sky high consumption for an indoor pot facility would raise flags. The reported consumption falls within the “normal” range.
ONly 22% for me at my shop. BUT think of it like Obamacare and use government maffs. It could have gone us 50% but thanks to the brilliant leadership of Chomo Joe, it only went up 20% so really you SAVED 30% on your electric rates.
Now doesn’t it feel good to save the entire planet, serf?
Let’s not forget what a U.S. President stated around 15 years ago, as I recall:” The price of electricity will necessarily skyrocket”.
Sue them and call to the witness stand people who have used them and what that use was.
The monthly availability charge jumped $7. Now $32 BEFORE the first light is turned on.$32 used to be my monthly bill.
Biden said he was going to make everything cost more. That’s one promise he has kept.
I heard that might be an option!
But you didn’t have to endure a bunch of mean tweets from an Orange BAD MAN IN THE White House, so it was worth it right?
I also remember he said he intended to fundamentally transform the nation. That was BEFORE the election in 2008. He was elected anyway. Stupid sheeple. No shortage of those.
