I didn't say it was about politics either. It's about culture

>Either they are deeply dishonest or complete idiots that don’t have a clue about the very basics of economics

Why not both?

Yeah that's all it does. Takes your total annual (estimated) usage and divides it by 12, so you end up "overpaying" in the summer and "underpaying" in the winter, but it's ultimately the same cost.

Someone on here had said they tried to sign up and there was a surcharge, but I can't seem to find it on any official documents. It might be a program RIE is required to implement by the state, so it's not (directly) a money-making endeavor. But it still does seem of limited use to me.

If you don't mind ordering online, Upton Tea. They are based in MA so sort of local still. Large selection and great customer service. I have zero affiliation with them.

Thanks I will

One of my best friends is Joe Solar. You may have seen his billboards. Dm me if you want to get in touch with him. Great dude and will take care of you. He’s getting a lot of people in RI onto the solar train.

I love the down votes. This has nothing to do with politics. RI is smaller than most counties in bigger states.

Well, they got all of you clucking about it.

Don’t forget about the F-U charge and the ‘just because we can’ charge https://photos.app.goo.gl/WArZZmH3LmojyYa49

What happens when you only use $45 in July? Does it even out for the winter months? I heat with wood but I've been curious because I know people who do that. Gas company clearly must make money on it or they wouldn't offer it.

My bill was $50 during the winter

This is what happens when we elect a potus who literally said our energy bills would increase if he was elected you got what you voted for.

Edit Ok In his own words

I pay $8 a month for heating

I'd rather the entire state of Rhode island burn to the ground than let this happen

No, this is a purely stupid take

We dont say "y'all"

I keep mine at 71 in the day and 67 at night and just got hit with $500 gas bill for Dec. And we just had a ton of insulation added in the fall.

Keep voting democrat

damn sorry to hear its so high... maybe try getting the plastic for the windows and thicker curtains? Idk theres something strange about that bill for 1000 sq ft

“I WAS IN THE POOL!!!”

This is what I came here to say. Especially the birthday cake flavor

But we have a much bigger population. Of humans.

No

No actually. I'm not home most of the day. Come back from work, eat, watch TV and sleep. Even work some weekends. 😶

Do you use gas for other things besides heat?
