While the article isn't the best written piece I have ready, it as enough facts for me to be outraged as the customer. The rates Edison charges aren't exactly super high to begin with, so me as a consumer saving a few cents here and there isn't going to move the needle. I would much rather see a company that enjoys monopolistic protection from the government be barred from pulling such stunts. Edison can be viewed as a quasi government entity and absolutely benefits from their monopolistic position. In return, their duty should be to watch out for the greater good of the community that funds it, including employment for individuals from those communities. If they were subjected to true open market competition, my opinion of this would be vastly different... but they are not.
