Smalltalk - Electric power cheap as dirt. This is a horror. In Europe, electric power is around 15 Cent - Euro Cent! But this is also far to cheap. That is a very interesting attitude -- I would call it elitist. Itappears that you would like to price electricity so that only rich people canafford it. Presumably, you would have people of lesser means go cold or burnwood.My current electric bill is only 25.80 EUR per month for 4 personsand 2 working places.The main idea is to replace social security payments byenergy taxes.I and my wife pay around 400.-EUR per month social security(health and rent). This should be replaced by energy taxes.0.-for social security, much higher energy prices,the energy tax pays for health and rent With 50 Cent per kWh, all could be produced by clean renewable sources and people would pay nearly the same using power better. Let's see, you want to raise the power cost by about a factor of 6 (50/8)and you say "People would pay nearly the same".They would throw out the dirty energy wasters and replacethem by good high efficiency appliances. The main secret of low power: notebook computers and a paperless office using nearly no light You would have loved the middle ages -- the average person used little orno paper and nearly no light.No internet, no notebook, no usenet :-(I like my living standard, but I have it with an reasonableamount of energy--Roland M�slhttp://www.pege.org Clear targets for a confused civilizationhttp://web-design-suite.com Web Design starts at the search engine
