The statement is only insane when one doesn't understand the behind the scenes electric company monopolies in the USA. While cost per kilowatt hour has decreased significantly over the last decade, consumer prices have /increased/ significantly. This is because the electric grid in the US is semi-regulated monopolies. The same is not true for Oil, Gas, or Natural Gas as there is competition in the marketplace. The competition is light, and there are few players, but few is always better than a single supplier. Single suppliers /always and forever/ raise prices beyond what the market can sustain, because they can.
