I don’t know that consumers will see their utility bills rise in absolute terms, since, 18 hours per day of rotating blackouts will give a net 0% raise on a 400% rate increase.

Excellent.

Sad, but true.

Our Rural Electric Co-op has already warned of near term rolling brownouts.

When people have no heat, no water on demand, their toilets don’t work, their septic tanks back up because the pumps are not powered, the grocery deliveries are late and also limited, there is a shortage of produce, no one can afford to run a freezer and the hospitals are shut down for hours at a time while they search for generator fuel, the zerOids will all be happy because their lifestyles are now sustainable.

These idiots want to live in uncomfortable poverty because it somehow satisfies their desire for martyrdom.
