Is the power company ripping you off? part 12

Living Off the Grid in the City Radio Show. Here I remind the reader that having electric power is a basic necessity, and I delve into how the private for-profit electric corporations are taking advantage of this situation. In previous episodes I shared my experiences with several electric companies, and how I became an advocate for renewable energies. My goals being to save my hard-earned money, for my purposes and not to maintain the high life of electric company employees; to save the environment and the planet; and to forward technology and efficiency worldwide. As a reminder, your power company is set up to make a profit, expand, and produce ever-more energy. And, your power company has no competitors, it is a monopoly in most areas. This is why the power company keeps raising the rates on you, and you have no choice but to pay them. They know they got you under their thumb, and you are hopeless but to pay. This is why power companies are abusive, arrogant, and not worried about their customers. They know their customers are trapped. They buy your representatives so that they keep raising rates and making record profits unabated. They have agents to pick up your phone calls, for any complaints and try to blame the high bills on your high-power usage. They also try to scam you into a plan that estimates your power usage and averages your bill so you can pay the same high amount every month, and prevent you from getting outraged when you see your bill go up from month to month. They are even brazen-enough to offer you to contribute to “solar energy” so that they can control that market too. The power company sucks!
