200 dollars...?

Usually, the more water or electricity of quantities of somethign you buy/consume, the cheaper a price per item you get (rabate). That way, those consuming much, get rewarded. It should be different. the more you consume, the more expensive per item/quantity the price becomes.

Like with health insurrance, in principle. If ypou stay healthy, you get punished: your money is taken away, but you get no comkensation. But when you become ill, then you get a return, in drugs, treatements, services. The system motivates you to become ill.

I like how they did in ancient China. His royal emperor'S majesty had personal doctors, who got rewarded and well payed as long as his majesty stayed healthy. When his majesty became ill, the doctors lost their job and income - or their head, whatever was considered to be more precious.
