Yep. Mine’s been over $200 a month since 2011.
In 2000, it was maybe a little over $100.

Of course if you’re stoned you don’t mind sitting in the dark.

Sheeple have become accustomed to just paying their bills without questioning, month after month, year after year. Economics decisions are far removed from what they have immediate control over.

The average sheeple loyally goes to his (or her) cubical each work day. He comes home at night, and is electronically mesmerized by multiple entertainment distractions and favorite adult beverages or chemicals.

He has automatic payroll deposit, automatic bill pay, automatic voting for "D", as he slides through life in a "happy" figurative stupor.

They are clients of the Deep State. That is their purpose in life, fed and fattened by the Deep State who make all their economic decisions.

The rise in electricity rates has outpaced the rise in household income which has averaged a meager four percent over the last 10 years.

Not much different than housing prices in many regions, where most of Middle America has simply been priced out.

Now they're charging obscene rates for what used to be extremely reasonable. Seems to be a pattern with these greedy SOB's.

The left is ruining Colorado. They are doing through vote fraud. Same day registration is destroying vote integrity and Colorado has turned purple.

Governor Chickenpooper wants to take the $70M form the Volkswagen settlement to put in charging stations for electric cars. They are attempting to close down many natural gas/crude oil sources. Most of the coal industry was legislated out of business. Demonicrats are in a war against energy.

Colorado Profile State Profile and Energy Estimates

Colorado's Renewable Energy Standard requires investor-owned electric utilities to provide 30% of electricity sold from renewable energy sources by 2020, with 3% coming from distributed generation.

That may explain a lot.

1900 KWHrs at my home in Arizona= $200

1500 KWHrs at my home in SoCalifornia $350

Sure sounds like price gouging and anti trust violations somewhere.

Seems like every place I read about has been lying to the consumers about the cost of the “renewable energy”. Why can’t they get their heads out of the sand & tell the truth on this? Probable reason is because somebody is turning a good profit on it.

The electric rates go up to pay for the gov’t pensions.
You cannot save money for retirement because you are paying for a gov’t workers easy retirement.

I moved from a farm, rural electricity, rural water and propane heat in a state with high humidity and extreme seasonal heat and cold. I now live in Colorado with natural gas and city power, utilities have gone from averaging well more than $500 to a little over $100 per month.

Thin dry air is easy to heat and we don’t need AC. Love this place!
