NH politics has long been in favor of single suppliers. Selling it as better than the alternative, saddling the cost of investing and adding more suppliers...Even internet which is much easier than electric to add to existing poles. We in southern NH have just started getting real alternatives to Comcast internet.
It's all politics, they're in bed with the big guys.

No that isn't how the grid works. Our energy, for the entire northeast, is essentially like a pool. And we draw from it what we need, where we need it. Transmission lines don't end at state or town lines.

Yeah there were a bunch of posts encouraging others to switch a few months back. I feel really bad for anybody who didn’t and is now throwing away buckets of cash every month. I got locked in for 13c for 3 years.

And, if these ancient hippies don’t stop shitting on Seabrook, we may lose that source of electricity too. That’s what, 1500 megawatts? Yikes. I’ve said it before, the only problem with nuclear power nowadays is the word “nuclear “.

They shouldn’t have to be out there so often.
Make your power company accountable for their botched maintenance.

Sounds like you got all the motivation to go do something to make the change you’re looking for! That’s the great thing about democracy. If you go ahead and lead a cause that you believe in, and get anough people motivated to back you, you can lead by example and make things happen!

I get that life can get away from you but just quit fuckin! Don't bring kids into your shitty world and if you can't get snipped then jump in a lake. Five kids all in group homes is almost as bad as where they're coming from, just a massive bummer. Especially with teenagers, they never get adopted.

IIRC someone on a FB page said dcyf had been notified multiple times by neighbors and teachers of the children at school.

Except remember, that the South voted as a block democratic for almost a century because the hatred of the party of Lincoln was so strong. Even though the Democrats in the late 19th century with a party of labor and in the 20th century progressivism, nonetheless the Democratic vote of the southern block be counted on until civil rights. It was a bitter pill that the Democratic party took and of course the right thing, but it cost the Democratic party dearly and has never quite recovered. Every one of those states now is firmly in the grip of the GOP

Or government-owned poles would work as well and they regulate it that way. As far as I know, most poles are on public property anyways. So how is this even happening?

Everscource and other power companies met before the hikes and agree they all up the rates then the gov approves it for most likely nice campaign contributions or other perks who knows.
Everscource then ups the delivery rate if costumers change to the companies that charge a little less as we all know they OWN the damn lines. All of them where I live in NH.
In Europe they capped the price of electricity so THIS could not happen. Gas companies made record profits, just like in this country, but over the the gov stepped in to help the people, not approve something to financially burden them even more.

Cheers to the public works guy. So so sad, I get being overwhelmed, especially with 5 kids, but that was hard to read, I can’t imagine getting to the point of perpetrating it.
