    Thumbs down Electricity Rate Hikes Illinois, Missouri Area

    My BIL lives out there....I'd bet he's not happy about this. Probably still less than we pay here in Jersey! http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/09/20/tea....ap/index.html

    I live in IL and heard about this a few weeks ago. I am not thrilled. ComEd is saying that the average customer will be paying about $13 more a month. If they increase the rates I have a feeling it will be much more than that though.

    I don't know what it is about the utilitycompanies always raising rates, although I know about supply and demand, but it gets to a point where they are literally leaching blood from the customers and that isn't good.
