I agree it should be a utility, if the US Government had not pumped money into things like the electrical grid in programs like the TVA, I bet a lot of those areas would still be without power. If it helps the country prosper and grow, then let's do it...oh wait, we have that mess in Iraq we'll be fighting for the next century, well..suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck there goes the money. |
