when supply is limited, there isn't really a difference between demand and cost. when supply went low, demand, and thus cost to the middlemen went way, way up.

when supply is limited, there isn't really a difference between demand and cost. when supply went low, demand, and thus cost to the middlemen went way, way up. the middleman was just applying a markup and passing their cost on to consumers.

Equivocating cost from the middleman based on a markup and cost to produce the electricity is quite a move.

  No, it wasn't cost "from" the middleman. I said cost "to" the middleman. The middleman was just passing along the higher cost.
