I wonder if they still will vote for democrats. Or if the possibility of a future abortion will lure them to still vote for adam schiff.

That is a good question. How many people will keep their TV,Interent, phone service and shut off the heat instead?

Yuo, and $200 cell phone bills, too.
This is why schools need to add a class on ‘living in society’...how to pay bills, make a budget, put things in perspective.
Maybe you don’t really need that damn Netflix subscription? Amazon Prime? Hulu? And on, and on, and on.
Take care of the ‘must-haves’ before you indulge in the ‘nice-to-haves’.

There’s a price to pay for all those protests against building power plants over the past 30 years. Now you idiots who protested are making all of us pay for your stupidity.

Most cold weather states have “lifeline” service in winter where utilities can’t be shut off until it warms up. So they often don’t have to make the choice.

You’re right. Budget billing won’t cut it this winter.

Buy Russian gas and this problem disappears.

No matter who buys it.

It’s fungible and it’s priced globally.

But stupid assed neocons insist on punishing Russia, some of the stupider one’s see Russia as a threat to the US or greater Europe.

While they struggle to handle lowly Ukraine.

Amazon Prime more than pays for itself with free shipping if you place 2 orders/month.

I can see people keep their cell phone. They should drop their streaming services, cable, and satellite service if they have them. Dropping their internet should be considered.

I cut home internet for a year or two when I needed to save money. Just used my phone as a hot spot.

In the near future, there will be credit card scanners on all light switches, outlets and hardwired appliances in our homes. If you want any kind of electricity, you will have to open your bank account and future money to the power company.
