You receive evidence every month when you receive your utility bill.

The surcharges on those utility bills to meet NRC obligations are completely seethrough as taxes, read as: theft under color of authority.

It’s unsustainable, period. Maybe we can get some more dreamers paying utility bills to cover these taxes... I mean “surcharges”? Screw it... let’s all just start paying $2.00 kWh for electric power... Let’s force the Amish to get on the grid and start paying into the fund.

They need to pay for “their fair share”.

As for these funds, what are they investing in exactly in this bogus economy that can possibly outpace inflation? 3 month Treasury Bills just sold at auction for 0%, for crying out loud.

And no, there is not “enough time for their decommissioning funds to increase to meet costs”. Plants are closed and awaiting full decommissioning, because THERE IS NOT ENOUGH MONEY THERE TO DO IT.

Boy... you keep changing your line of argument. First, it was sweetheart crony capitalist deals to pay for decommissioning, now you are switching to it is unfair for ratepayers paying their utility bills for the service they receive and the associated costs involved in producing that electricity.

Which is it Buddy? Do you somehow think your are entitled to free electricity?

If the utilities don't get the money from their customers, where the hell do you think they are going to get it?
