I wonder how many have not cancelled their cable TV?

The situation is far more complex than that in Maryland. During the fat years of the Bush administration, the Leftwingtards who run Maryland (into the ground) prohibited the power companies from raising rates to meet the higher costs of fuel. Consequently the companies were in serious danger of being decapitalized and power simply being cut off for everybody forever.

A reluctant state legislature finally agreed to let the companies raise their rates.

The raises occurred at the same time Obama was promising power users "serious relief" through the prohibition of coal! (LMAO) But nobody noticed the price had gone up may times until about the December billing cycle.

Not only has the price gone up as the price of fuel increased, it's gone up even more in the face of the loss of cheap coal, and more than that, all those years during the fat times where they forced down the rates, the companies are playing "catch up".

The power bills in Maryland are actually breaking people down financially and givng them a taste of what it will be like for everyone under Obama's Cap 'n Trade.

This situation is one to watch closely !

This is one crisis Republicans should be prepared to take advantage of inasmuch as Maryland is fully in the control of the Democrats and their running dog lackeys.
