Discounted pre-paid meters would be awesome.
It costs the utility money to supply a service and not get paid for 45 days (not to mention the accounts who never pay).
If they can make the same profit with lower prepaid rates, (similar to prepaid versus contract cell service), its good for everyone.
It would be especially good if you could pre-purchase kWh during cheap times of the year and use them during the times when rates are higher.

The monopolistic abuses of these fucks knows no bounds.
The answer is to move to generate your own power - like cutting cable from the TV + MSM - cut the wire and power your own existence. It's already cheaper to do that now anyways. Fuck 'em.
