Re: Go Figure...

Racket...yeah, it's sure hell to offer more products at better prices. If anyone has the racket it's the competitors who got the no-compete clause into the law.

Why is it when the goverment makes a smart move for the consumers the business complain they can't compete. Why the hell do they do this.. Compete geez. Learn to cut costs in a lot more ways then just kicking out workers save money all around and pass the saving on to the consumers and they wouldn't have this problem.

There is a fine line that these companies could walk on and show good profits but because of greed they fail to. Now they complain about not being able to compete. Hell the damn muni's have cut costs effeciantly to get this to work and get a low price why won't the other companies.

Well its kinda hard to compete on price when you are going against a tax-exempt government-run bureaucracy that has the benefits of subsidies from other municipally run services. Ever wonder why UPS can't ship you a letter for 37 cents? Maybe its due to the fact that they have to pay fuel taxes on their entire fleet, property taxes on all their buildings, registration costs for all their vehicles and just about every other regulatory fee under the sun. The US Post Office pays none of this (and still loses money).

I still would like to know why people haven't commented on the nice 50% rate hike that was passed on the municipal electric customers in this area. Why don't any of the "pro-competitive" people here suggest that there be some competition in electrical generation for this market, because clearly it is needed.
