I do. Where is the good Dem candidate with the platform attacking high cost of living, corporate takeover of housing, backing unions, and looking at funding education, ubi, etc?
It's be pretty easy to break this wide open and runaway with the election. If they wanted to.
I'm left of centre, and here's my take - the "left" is fucking up so badly that the right is going to win.
Ever play a sport and you just trounce your opponent, but the coach says "you weren't that good! They were just that bad tonight."
This is the same thing. Trump and the GOP aren't doing some amazing job of campaigning and manipulating, they're just up against the weakest opponent who can't stop scoring on their own fucking net.
With my job I get other people's hydro bills to split between upper and lower tenants and I see their bills too. While I find this bill exceptionally high, it's not really out of whack. This is just what we pay for electricity here (in BC Canada)
For reasons I'm not sure about, I posted a screenshot of my bill below in answer to the quack telling me I don't know what my bill was.
We live in the upper, larger portion of the house and there is a suite downstairs. I'm not sure what they get up to, but the cost is high. We have led lights, central ac which we only use conservatively. Other power sucks would be the extra fridge in garage I guess, so the household (with the suite) runs 3 fridges, 2 sets of laundry machines and 2 dishwashers. Our range is gas.
I have no idea how the bill is so high. I can only imagine how much higher it would be if I charged a vehicle on top - though I do understand that would eliminate the $120/week I spend on gasoline
I got blasted with a $700 electric bill this month, and we didn't really do anything new or different. So this doesn't surprise me really.
If electricity is going to cost this much, I guess the only way electric gets "cheaper" than gas is by hiking gas prices until its cheaper to charge. Consumers are never going to win though.
I really really want to know what my kids generation is called. Post z - born in like 2017. What's that gen?
