Re: bandwidth?

Ahh... that post was expected.

Guess they just need to move to tiering or some sort of metered billing.

What good is electricity if you can't leave all your lights on and windows open all day long?

Yeah, god forbid someone might want to leave thier fridge on all day. Or hot water heater. Or computer. Or air conditioner. Or de/humidifyer. Or etc, etc, etc. Just because I'm not taking a shower right now doesnt mean I want to have to wait for the water to warm up every time I take one.

Just because I'm not sitting at my computer at the moment, doesnt mean its not doing something I am paying for it to do...

I think we both know that we are not talking about a hot water heater here. You should have used things like multiple hot tubs, pool, heated garage, or tapping your electric line to run the lighting store next door.

This is why it is important for the top 1% to pay their fair share of that electricity vs. the average user. Why should my small home have the same electric bill as your 50,000 sq ft mansion + lighting store business?

It is a shame you're not clever enough to come up with a valid analogy.

Oh Yeah!!!

Sorry, would rather not digress into personal attacks. If you can't figure out the economic similarities, go ask your mum.

I loathe incorrect formation of analogies, yours being a prime example. If you cannot accept valid criticism, perhaps a public forum is not your forte.
