But Doug was on the scene kicking rocks into a creek with his loafers.

Yeah if only the altruistic millionaire CEO could save us from ourselves by raising rates astronomically and reaping millions in compensation.

Average CEO tenure is less than 5 years. Less time than most politicians stay in office btw.

Seriously get bent. Your ideology is gross.

Yeah that turns out so well for municipalities that decide to privatize their utilities.

Privatizing public services is almost always a complete disaster because there is no market competition for a utility.

I don’t wonder why.

Literally it’s because of starve the beast policies enacted by Republicans looking to privatize utilities so people like your buddy can suck on the teat of hard working Americans.

Private utilities are worthless middle men that jack up prices for profit and people like your CEO buddy are leeches on society.

Cope and seethe.

People shouldn’t have to be price gouged for services necessary for living.

The cost to sustain your shithead CEO buddy’s total compensation is thousands of hardworking households water bill.

There isn’t a single public position that pays close to what he makes and there shouldn’t be.

I don’t think utilities should be billion dollar private companies.

Necessary services and infrastructure shouldn’t be price gouged by worthless MBAs pretending their adding “shareholder value”.

A fair salary is one where the CEO doesn’t exist.

Fuck private utilities.

Imagine “only” making 600k a year by price gouging people that have no choice.

Fuck private utilities and their CEOs.

Whats the compensation for the CEO of one of these private water utilities?
