I dont know anything about the TVAs salary structure, but weve seen first-hand (friends and family living on the Clinch River and Watts Bar Lake) that TVA is intoxicated with their power. Theyre heavy handed thugs, basically.
They are definitely thuggish.
They tried to screw with a bunch of us a few year ago and we had to ram it up their a$$. We ended up getting an amendment attached to the WIIN act of 2016 that forced them to back off. Total grass roots effort went from nothing to an act of Congress in 9 months. Their CEO was drug in front of Congress as part of our effort and Mark Meadows drilled him on his salary. I think he made something like 20x what the President does.
Congrats on a win against TVA!
