[QUOTE="klein, post: 895162, member: 23950"] Alberta had the exact opposite happening, and you can google all over the net how unhappy people are because electricty was sold to private companies. We (us clients and tax payers) did receive a 1 time check of about $200 each (profits from the sale), but power rates went up more then 25% afterwards. We have a non per profit healthcare system in Canada. There are many non per profit organisations. Tell me which Charity would you rather donate to ? Per profit or a non per profit one ? Where do you think where you could get the best deals. A non per profit store or restaurant, or one that wants profits ? If you decided to sell veggies and flowers out of your garden as a non per profit hobby, could you keep up with those garden centers that earn a profit, and sell your harvest cheaper ? I could sell my hotdogs less than a dollar, if I didn't want to earn a profit - but they are minimum $3.50 each. (and I'm cheaper then the competitors) - but I don't stand a chance against a non per profit charity raising event, unless I'm willing to work for free, too. [/QUOTE]
