has anyone else heard about the new energy tax, i do not know if i was dreaming or not but thought i heard on tv early this morning how high utilites were going because of the new energy tax. i did read on opus.net where govt grants were going to the oil companies to convert to the new ethanol. wonder if they will give grants to the consumers to purchase the new cars?

i use both my hands and dishwasher, i only use my dishwasher once a day. i did see on tv news last week. where one business owner went thru and fixed every leaky fawcet to bring water bill down and the water company told him it did not matter. they still had bills to pay. so what is going on. they want us to conserve energy and still charge us the same if not more.

now it did help some with our power bill when we got that tankless hot water thing. i do not know what you call it. but its like alabama power found out and then raised the price. with the energy tax i really do worry about people who are already having a hard time.

agree carl and i dont understand it. power as water and sewer should be a basic comodity available and affordable to all, as a method for making money? never. actually basic telephone as well but thats another story. like when all the infrastructure was destroyed in new orleans, thats when the stockholders should have taken it on the chin but they declared banckruptyc in just that division instead. bunch of crooks. when they round up the intellectuals this time they really need to go after just the lawers and mbs's and cpa's.
