FPL shocks us again

I have developed this recurring character of the imperious monarch that, in my opinion, captures how we unwashed ratepayers feel about the utility.
It's interesting that while we all have to tighten our belts because of rising prices--cutting here, cutting there to make ends meet--FPL never has to do any belt-tightening. It just goes back to the trough when the raw materials get more expensive, its lawyers do a little boo-hooing in Tallahassee, and the dance is over until the music starts again the next time.

I could understand if their profits weren't in the BILLIONS ...

FPL customers pay less/kilowatt hour than most in America. Sorry to intrude with reality.
