Awesome, free utilities for all in ny. Next folks can “buy” a house, not make payments, and live there their whole lives. We demand free gas, fuel oil, electricity water, internet, cable TV, phone, garbage removal too!
Oh and someone to wax our free vehicle of choice too :)
Sure, it’s *free*, but it’s also going to be owned by the government and thereby horribly mismanaged,
It will then be weaponized against us, with only those of favored status getting utilities, and those who do not submit are left to their own devices.
I think they tried this in Venezuela. That worked out well.
Taxation.
He’s providing a political benefit without going through government.
But will include a provision for disconnection of paying trump supporters!
Would love to but still working here and have son in AF with his wife expecting first grand child.
Congrats on the coming grandchild.
There is nothing that makes us say “Let’s live another day” as grandchildren.
Landlords and now utilities. This is just forcing socialist welfare payments onto private entities.
Would that cover non-payment of state income taxes as well?
Free electricity.... Well, free if you don’t pay taxes. Somebody needs to pay the utilities and if the person who isn’t paying them gets them for nothing, then the government will obviously need to pony up and cover their non-payments. Meaning taxpayers will pay for these loafers.
“Proposal Would Prevent Utilities from Disconnecting Service for Non-Payment”
*Unless you are a conservative*
Of course, the law would not apply to anyone in the state that attended the Stop the Steal rally.
Then why should anyone bother to pay?
What about a-hole governors that disconnect grandma and grandpa from the living?
that creates more problems then it solves
