Reply to comment by Uncle_Baconn in Eversource doubles pay for CEO as 'skyrocketing' electric bills hit customers by WellSeasonedUsername

I'd happily reduce my electric bill by $0.25 a month if it meant he was out of the job.

Who do you want to do it? What should they get paid? You don't like this guy, but I bet you didn't like the last guy either and he raised a rate that actually went to their profits. The January rate increase was strictly COGS.

Egg prices go up = omelette prices go up. Doesn't mean the restaurant made more money. At least with the regulated utility, there's transparency in the rates via PURA.

Edit: a word

That's the egg producer, not the restaurant.

Yes, egg prices are insane.

Eliminate the position.

Allow the state to capture Eversource and run it as a state utility. For the good of the people of Connecticut rather than the windfall of the shareholders.
