Electricity Pirating 101
So... power companies have instated this weird rule where they can cut the power on EVERYONE if usage exceeds a certain amount.
Interesting rule right?
Well, by doing so what appears to be happening is that they are creating their own shortages artificially so they can then jack up the price and get more money. First, there's no rule that say, if your state has a surplus of power and surplus of power plants that the company has to mandate that local needs come first. And power grids are tied together such that, if the next state over from you is completely run into the ground ... they don't have a means of a cut off saying, well we have to take care of our own people first. Then and only then export the power to the needy state.
By the way stocks are similar to this. Like if a company makes... OK let's say they made a ton of money between say 1950 to 2015 in say a random state, it could be any state... there's nothing that says they have to keep all that infrastructure and the money they made in that local area. They could literally take EVERYTHING tomorrow and go to Phillipines, China, and not even stay in the state that BUILT that company from the LOYAL LOCALS that supported that business.
And electricity is the same. There's basically 3 main power grids in the US. Texas is the south one. Then the east coast, and then the west coast power grid. That's the 3. And they are all chained together such that this is why I said above that even if your state has surplus of power grid if your neighbor doesn't you are still chained to their same fate. Especially if that needy state is completely run down but with a high population. COUGH California and New York Cough cough. CA pays about double what for electricity what a normal state would pay. And there's very little if any oversight on how a power company in your area sells that power out of state, while still having any loyalty to the area the plant was actually built in.
And these power companies they also have this thing with power arbitrage where they can take local power that is cheap and sell it to a NEEDY state that has huge power bills. Or borrow and then buy using leveraged money. Like places like NY, or California the price per kilowatt and the average household electric bill is enormously high.
So if you factor this in together this basically means a power company in my state or your state can be pushing massive amounts of power to these needy states run down and thoroughly corrupted like CA, NY, or Chicago... and then instead of having a surplus they somehow have HUGE power deficits in your area because it got sent to a higher bidder. And there's nothing to say they have to provide locals with power first that actually had the leadership and communities intact enough to create peaceful conditions for those companies to come in and thrive and be built there. Now factor in what I said that they can have power cutoffs because of big need. You see where this is going? They are creating artificial power deficits that aren't real. Then they take that to create conditions to up the price of electricity in areas where they don't need to pay more. But now they have to because sneaky economic pirate mongering.
You should be aware of this and try to get this information to people in your companies that won't sell you out.
Thanks.
