Election time must be coming up...........oops..........that happened last November. ;-) For Chuck:......gasoline - boats.........gasoline - tow vehicles. Just a preemptive strike to keep the head sheriff from interrogating me. ;-) |

And to please our VP of Shameless Commerce, you need to work in the brand name of that cheap gas at least three times. You two are such neat guys!

You see, here in the Nutcase....er, Nutmeg State, the Democrats who control the Legislature came up with this brilliant program - it's called Zone Pricing Policy. It was intended to level out the price of gasoline across the state so that the areas with higher income levels paid more than those with lower income levels. Of course what happened was exactly the opposite. Zone Pricing means that they can sock it to the rural parts of the state and keep the gas prices in the cities cheap. Hartford gas is about .11/15¢ cheaper for example and it's pretty much the same in other cities in the state. Move out of the city, bend over. And now that it's entrenched, it can't be changed because it's a money maker - um, I'm sorry - REVENUE ENHANCER which brings in tons of taxes for the treasury. And it makes money for the companies who retail the gas along with the distributors. So it can't be changed. This is the same bunch of bozos who figured that electricity would be cheaper if the Utility companies divested their power generating plants and purchased their energy on the open market passing the savings along to the customer. This brilliant stroke of genius caused a 50/75% increase in electricity rates in the past two years because they never figured that the generators of power would have to make money also. California did it and got screwed? Oh, well we're smarter than that - won't happen here. Dumbasses. Oh and get this. The latest is that the Legislature, 98% Democrats, is now working towards allowing the Utility companies to purchase back the generation plants they just sold - at a premium of course financed by.... Wait for it... Wait for it.... Tax subsidies to the Utility companies!!! Including state bonding to improve the plants!!! Brilliant!!! Unfortunately, it won't make the rates go down because...um...well... er...becasue. BUT, they won't go up in the future. We think. Maybe. Like hell they won't. And to think Ohio was once owned by Connecticut and called New Connecticut. Thank goodness you sold the land to folks who have reason and sponsor a great college football team. Teeheenyuknyuknyuk! |

I just paid 2.69... we're always screwed in CA with the supposed "special
formulation" only required here. Oh yeah, my last utility bill... $455. Yup, de-regulation has worked wonders here. --Mike "Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message ...
