Purchasing cooperatives stimulate competition for electricity or natural gas supply services in the residential marketplace. Purchasing Cooperatives leverage the increased purchasing power of the group over that of the individual by obtaining competitive pricing, eliminate the need for the individual to go through the process alone, share in the costs, technical support, and expertise.

My husband forwarded this little gem to me about our Howard County COC and apparent "co-operatives". This excerpt is the piece de la resistance, telling us how wonderful co-ops are. Never mind communism is based on that, and is an utter failure in all regards.

MD/HoCo ping - I think it’s scary how all this stuff happens right here.

This looks to me just like a reworded version of allowing alternative providers...perhaps I’m misunderstanding it, or my new-dad brain (caused by an infant wanting to be awake at 3am) isn’t working right...

Being stuck in (pseudo-)Kolumbia I can never remember a Repub rep of any kind. Well, just Ecker, but that’s it.

WOW! The day after my George!
And “William Daniel” - makes me think of the actor, but especially John Adams. Like it!

Yes, he did! And his aunt even made it - fine - to the “party” despite her 1st chemotherapy treatment earlier that day (suddenly we’ve had lots of cancer pop up).
BTW, my husband wants to go to some discussion meeting about this co-op thing at his work. I asked him what he thinks off-hand, and he thinks of it just as a way to be cheaper. I told him my concerns, but we’ll see. It’s OK if he wants to check it out.
