This thing stinks. The backroom deals, arm twisting and out and out dishonesty that we are getting shoved down our throats. I am hearing between $70-$100 per family in increased bills. What a sham.

That $70-100.00 would be PER WEEK, not annually, I’m SURE!

Uh, PER MONTH. Just on your electric bill. Doesn't include your gas, nor the increased price for anything using fuel to be produced and/or shipped to you (i.e. anything). Think food: You need petroleum-based fertilizer, the tractors and combines need fuel, processing takes fuel, shipping it to you uses fuel and if it is refrigerated it uses yet more fuel.

The average family is going to be out between $3,000 and $4,000 per year. At least we'll save a lot on gas - unemployed people don't use much of it compared to commuting every day. If this passes, kiss this lousy economy good-bye, and welcome in GD 2.

Think again..if you have a small house it will be $200 to $300 per household. Plus, gas will top out at $10 per gallon (which is what they want..)
