As a Québécois I prefer it that way, even if a small part of my electricity bill is used as a disguised tax on energy consumption.
- sidewndr46 3y agoIn the case of New York it's a foreign country, so I could care less. But if the government sets up from what I understand is a monopoly and then uses that monopoly to sell to another country, of course it should be used to subsidize that same service that the citizens utilize. Otherwise the government is just capturing part of the economy and using it for whatever purposes they desire. Which is in fact, the definition of a tax.
