This same bill has already been
passed by the House Democrats (Socialists). The U.S. Senate Democrats (Socialists) are about to vote on it.

your senators how you feel, before it is too late.

Complaints soar as energy bills hit hard
The
first bills revealing a nasty 22 per cent hike in electricity prices have sparked a surge in complaints from pensioners and
struggling families.
Local MPs and the Energy and Water Ombudsman have been besieged by aggrieved householders
who have been shocked by new energy costs, approved this year by price regulator IPART.
In NSW, electricity prices rose 21.7 per
cent in the September quarter, water by 14.8 per cent and gas by 7.4 per cent, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
"Power is not a discretionary product -
people must have electricity and sometimes gas yet we have a situation where customers cannot pay for something they cannot
live without. Some people end up using kerosene and candles for heat and light. We have to do better than that."
The average family now spends about $1350
a year, or $337 a quarter, on electricity.
But
more price hikes are on the way. Last week, the Business Council of Australia forecast gas and electricity prices would double
by 2015 due to global warming policies such as emissions trading.
