[QUOTE="GTS225, post: 441850, member: 6678"] They can post huge profits because they spend pennies on improvements. It's just good business to spend small and charge big, (buy low-sell high). We have the same problem up here in Iowa with our utilities. Still use wood 'phone poles for power and phone lines, and they will leave them in service until they're so badly weathered, a guy wonders how they're still standing. There's probably a few transformers around with PCB's in them yet. You can rant until you're blue, but the utilities are so ingrained into the infrastructure, your elected representatives will not hold them accountable for their indiscretions. There's just too much money at stake in tax income. I suggest you try to focus on something you can influence, rather than jeopardize your health tilting at windmills. Just my 2-pence.....Roger [/QUOTE]
