“The Electricity company DOES take my excess electricity and allows me to take it back whenever I want. So, in the daytime I give to them (when they need it the most) and at night time I take it from them when they have the most to spare.”

It is going to be a cold night in Florida. FPL facilities will be running at full bore.

If Floridians want to live in warm houses in late January, FPL’s costs to provide enough electricity must be considered and compensated. The question is how much.

“The government should get out of the energy business.”

I can play tough with FPL and live in an unheated house if its rates are too high, but how about an 87-year old woman with significant dementia?

Trey a different analogy, that one is just plain dumb.

The government should not be in the energy business. I didn’t say anything about not taking care of those who cannot take care of themselves, two different subjects.
