Fuck. This is clearly a stunt meant to appease people with a tiny discount on a single bill. They’ve pulled this before, and it’ll do nothing to lower our bills.
I’m a single guy with a TV and a computer, and when I moved to California less than a decade ago my energy bill averaged around $70 a month. Now it averages around $150 a month. Same behavior, twice the price. That’s unacceptable.
Reminder that at least one utility company in CA is a convicted felon for causing the deaths of multiple people in wildfires. They’re bad companies operating in bad faith.
