    $1,000 is just a number. I do feel that it is kind of the legislature to put a cap on the price of their vote. The free market would surely set the price much higher.

    You're kidding right? You voted YES for the Base Load Review Act. You knew that ratepayers would be on the hook for the expense if it failed. I still can't figure out why you think it's okay for ratepayers to pay the interest only portion of a failed project. Your job should be to protect the citizens from loop holes in bills. Why is this hard to understand?

    Exactly! Let big business handle their own problems and stop bailing them out. SCANA can foot the bill with its holdings... Instead, special interest people feel it's the ratepayer that should brunt their failure.

    Duck - you said in a previous post that we would be in a similar boat if the bill didn't pass. Why don't you and your colleagues spend taxpayer money on a bill thats worth a damn. If you knew the bill would result in ratepayers footing the bill or interest payments why not write something of purpose or have a backbone to protect your constituents? You and your colleagues have the ability to do these things but CHOOSE otherwise.

    Remember this when voting the next time people...

    Feb. 12, 2004: The South Carolina General Assembly passes a bill that creates the Office of Regulatory Staff, which replaces the state consumer advocate in representing the interests of the public in utility rate cases.

    April 19, 2007: The General Assembly passes the Base Load Review Act. The bill makes it easier for utilities to raise rates to pay for nuclear reactors while they are under construction and to charge ratepayers for their investments in plants that are not completed.

    If they are to big to fail, they should be big enough to out of pocket any investment in future profit on their own.

    Only one way to explain how lawmakers can recuse big business of their debts and get away from paying their debt

    I wish I could go get a loan and somewhere in the fine print it could say if I FAIL to pay this note my lender will raise rates of other loans to cover my tab. Sound familiar in a simplistic explantation?

    Also, does the state collect taxes on the overage they are charging the customers?

    Timber, you simply want to be an ass. I refuse to be similar. Argue with your rep.
    Either write things worth reading, or do things worth writing.

    How do you get to vote on something that does not impact you?

    Not saying it isn't somewhat deserved, but I hope all of you are hammering your reps as much as your hammering DT. If you're not willing to do that, then chill.
