Same place I’m falling on the spectrum. Some things I stand by on principle, and execute alignment to the best of my abilities. For other things? Spite.

In my local area, there have been several posts over the last couple of weeks across the standard platforms with people complaining about excessive prices, and price increases. Some folks are sharing examples where costs for electricity have increased 40% year-over-year, and yet we live in an area that’s primarily supported by hydroelectric, and have generally low energy costs. The deregulation and desire for utilities to turn a profit are killing people, without exaggeration.
