"Our electrical utilities are regulated so that they are actually more profitable when electrical consumption goes down"

how does this work? i'm not trolling. i'd really like to know how a company can make more profit by selling less of their product? i fear you're going to say something about move government interference... which is really what this entire story is all about.

your argument against free market, less government intervention policies is to put forth a city that is bankrupt and third world like because of its anti-free market, pro-union and the more government the better, ways. classy.

i have worked for a company that buys up assets and contracts from auto companies ran into the ground by unions. it does happen. they are very good at it. one companies loss, is anothers gain. the free market will always adapt and prevail. government, will always corrupt and lose.

i do not think you understand how the US Army is set up. i assure you there have been US soldiers engaged in combat since the withdrawal of "combat troop" from iraq. there have even been US soldier combat deaths.

it's word play. the only combat troops taken out of Iraq where organizations with the word "combat" in their names. all US soldiers are combat troops. it's our first MOS.
