I don’t even think everyone had the option of not getting a variable pricing, but even if they all did have the choice, no one would assume the companies would charge over a thousand times the going rate of electricity. How you could defend that is just astonishing. Yes it’s their fault for not realizing the should choose the option that gives a flat rate, and not try to save some money using more electricity when prices are lower, as clearly the industry would fail and charge them a year’s salary for a week’s electricity.

It’s their fault, for not realizing they were going to be gouged to a ruinous extent, after those companies failed in their duty, and that their politicians would abandon them, and have abandoned them already?
