Bullshit. Average daily cost last year was 3.75 during the same month. This year it's 5.09 daily cost. I have the most recent bill in my hand. Last year I used Jan-Feb 21.3 KWH average daily and this year it's 20.6.
Throw in increases for the 6 other fees the grid hits me for and yes, it's way up over last year.
Bill also includes:
Electric vehicle charge
Distribution charge
Transmission charge
Energy efficiency charge
Renewable energy charge
Distributed solar charge
$69.48 for these alone
$152.00 total this month
$112.00 last year
Not quite 50% but still drastically higher higher than the 3.1 percent inflation rate Biden claims. Throw in grocery increases, cable increases, natural gas increases, and the natural gas company wants more. Insurance costs are way up, rents are up, gasoline is up from 3 years ago and inching higher again.... I got clobbered this year. far more than the 3.1 percent Biden claims.
You can talk increased wages but I am retired. My increases are tied to Bidens bullshit inflation rate.
