Public Utilities in this country used to be owned by the "people" and managed by governments on their behalf. Now they've nearly all been sold off to private enterprise for a quick profit and to save government expenditure. Very short sighted indeed.

All this situation worldwide and here at home reminds me of a quote attributed to "Dutch" Schultz: "What happened to the good old days when you could get a guy whacked for twenty bucks? Now what is it? $10,000!"

Hitman replies: " We live in inflationary times."

And now the hitmen run power companies and corporations worldwide.
