Energy Fascism

The Big Energy Companies conspiring to limit their customers choice as to the source of lower cost Energy in order to maintain their market share and cash flow at record levels.

Southern California Edison (SCE) is guilty of practicing Energy Fascism because they refuse to pay their residential solar electricity customers the same amount, for energy they put into the grid that SCE charges it's non Solar customers for that same Energy when those customers take it out of the PUBLIC grid.

This "monetary difference" makes the Utility shareholders record profits while preventing many more residential customers from installing their own solar panels because of the very long payback period; this practice is used to maintain profits and market share from being reduced by the ever decreasing cost of home solar panels.
