I could start a charity tomorrow with zero donors and then complain that it's unfair that I don't have money to pay heating bills.
If these charities can't keep their lights and heat on then its because people don't find the cause worth donating too. Why aren't you paying their bills? You must not care about the needy at all.
Zero idea what any of this has to do with companies who develop energy resources. The energy doesn't magically come into existence because someone with a sob story wants it.
- Jochim 4y agoYou've entirely misunderstood the post. It's not charities that are struggling, it's individuals whose bills have tripled in the last year. The disconnect between energy bills being so high that a non-trivial number of people are now unable to heat their homes through winter with the elderly among them at genuine risk of dying from the weather. At the same time many of these energy providers are reporting that their profits have doubled or tripled. At this point there is clear harm being done to a large section of society by these companies and the question is what we should do about it.
