> And nationalize PG&E to get rid of exploitative power rates.
This needs to be highlighted more. Electricity is so expensive with PG&E that it is going to hold back anything that needs electricity. A few more rounds of price hikes and we'll be at $1/kWh!
If the PG&E price increases continue in their current pattern, in less than ten years my PG&E monthly bill will be larger than my mortgage! This is not sustainable.
Earlier price hikes this year were explicitly structured to capture all the "lost" revenue from solar. Basically if you have solar panels and are selling the power back to the grid, the various fees make it cost the same as if you just bought the power from PG&E in the first place.
It is insane that California utilities commission lets them get away with this. Blatant corruption.
