The PSC seems immune to our pain. Again they have granted a large, greedy, monopoly to raise rates on the very people who keep them in business. Inflation is here in food, taxes,utilities and we can't stay afloat. Many of us seniors are hanging on by a thread and low income families have made no gains in years, to add to that because of unemployment many of us seniors are caring for our grandchildren or helping to care for them. They have no morals to keep gouging us for a power plant we won't live to use. I was behind another Gran in Wendys , he was counting change to get his two grans a kids meal, and I was doing the same for mine, he said "we have them, their mom and dad are in prison, its hard on us but we do what we can" Groceries are so expensive, we try to give them a treat every now and then." This is hard, trying to stay in our homes, choosing between paying power bill, get medicine, or buy food. Please can't someone address this!
