Got to love this. Oh and they pass a law that 25 percent of power

"If they do neither, they have to pay a fine to the state."

Get ready for utility bills to increase. After all, the power company really has zero incentive to change. They aren't money-making businesses. If they are "fined" by the state, they just pass all costs directly to the consumer. And gee, if you don't like it, well, there's not a damn thing you can do about it. Its not like you can just head down to the local corner electric store and say, "Hey, my electric company is charging me too much, I'd like to switch companies."

What a crock.
