The next step will be govt payments to help with the high green energy bills.
Now everyone is dependent on govt to survive.
Back in the 90s I worked in Macon, GA. My Georgia Power bills had a box you could check for any extra amount "to help the poor with their power bills". I wrote them a separate letter saying all that did was ensure that GA Power got paid and I wasn't going to subsidize them. I would however, contribute to a fund which gave no-interest loans to the poor to insulate their houses, with the proviso that they paid the loan back by adding a nominal sum ($1.00) to their bill.
