Sorry, I should have been clearer. People should still pay for the electricity, but at the very least the transmission and most of the generation should be publically owned.
And energy retailers like some states have are so dumb. "Shopping around’ for electricity when they’re just slightly repacking the rate the transmission company sets is so stupid.
