🚨🔌 DROP THE MONOPOLY:
It’s time for Michigan to END the monopoly laws protecting our corrupt utility companies.
DTE and Consumers Energy get the BEST of both worlds: guaranteed profits because they’re the ONLY option, while still acting like a greedy, unchecked corporation.
We ranked 51st out of 51 states including DC — DEAD LAST — in the country for average power restoration time. DEAD. LAST.
They BUY politicians on both sides with donations by the MILLIONS, and WE, The People, who are supposed to be protected by these rules, are the ones getting screwed.
Government-created monopolies always FAIL the people eventually.
For example, Ohio has a free market system and their rates are 20% LOWER than ours — with far BETTER service.
Time to allow real COMPETITION. Make DTE have to earn our business instead of collecting guaranteed money while we sit in the dark.
We’re being SOLD out in real time.
WAKE UP, Michigan!
Heads up. Consumers and DTE Energy summer rate increases for peak hours beginning Monday.
