PG&E’s Prop 16

Oh look, it’s the generic thoughtful voter model-wants-to-be-an-actress paid for by PG&E for the mass mailer to tell us about their “Right to Vote” Prop 16.

And looks she’s wearing green!

They should rename Prop 16 as:

The Right to Vote to-force-your-community-to-seek-2/3-voter-approval*-to-switch-to-cleaner-lower cost-alternative-utility-providers-thus-locking-PG&E’s-monopoly-into-the-California Constitution Proposition.

(* “Seek 2/3 voter approval” is lawmaker code for “Go Fish” and “Ain’t Gonna Happen.”)

PG&E does not want competition.  Prop 16 represents a big boot stomp on the emerging green jobs economy to keep the dirty non-renewable energy with ever-escalating rate-increases.

The ironic part of the PG&E’s “Right to Vote”  prop is that ratepayers cannot vote on how PG&E uses it’s money –which would be appropriate in this case given they’re spending $30 million of ratepayer money to tell ratepayers they need more economy democracy.

So thanks generic thoughtful voter model-wants-to-be-and-actress wearing green!


The last time we had a thoughtful voter model-wants-to-be-an-actress representing PG&E it was Erin Brockovich.
