Reply to comment by enigma7x in Eversource, United Illuminating have spent millions to lobby Connecticut lawmakers by Toybasher
The vast majority of people cant. Also have you read their contracts? What about the eversource delivery service?
We have a monopoly with make up to make it look like a free market (oh wow u get to choose ur source but get butt fucked with delivery and contract details/penalties).
I know there are people here who will defend their beloved politicians even if get thrown out of their homes. Good luck.

With respect to eversource, anyone has access to alternative suppliers. It is illegal in Connecticut for there to be any punitive conditions on any contract or rate lock with a supplier - this is the law I'm referring to. I've read the contract, it mentions fees for breaking your lock for a different supplier "unless in the following states" where CT is listed because our Congress people did that for us. I am not worshipping anyone. I am stating a factual law on the books that they created to our benefit.
Eversource still owns delivery. Their rates are locked by law until 2024. This is what happens when you privatize a utility. If you are arguing for a state sponsored and run energy company, I wholeheartedly agree.
