Every single one of you is running a massive trade defecit with the company that supplies electricity to your house. You buy electricity from them over and over and over, and they have bought NOTHING from you. That trade defecit is just skyrocketing.

Yes, it's amazing they keep accepting my IOUs for future electricity when I don't actually have any
If you owe the bank ten million dollars, and can't pay, you have a problem.
If you owe the bank ten billion dollars, and don't feel like paying, the bank has a problem.
Tariffs and other forms of rigging the terms of trade work exactly the same way.
This is why I'm introducing tariffs in the form of magnets 🧲
Yes, we need to do this thermodynamically properly, Mike 😁
Yeah, but at least they don’t ask me to bail them out when the power goes out! Nice to meet you mike 🤝
"Folks, just got my electricity bill, and it's a complete and total catastrophe! We're sending them all this money, and they're sending us... lights? Who needs lights when we can have a deal? This is a rigged system. We need to start selling them some of our great, beautiful sunlight. They're loving it, believe me. They're using it to make solar power, and we're getting nothing in return. It's a disgrace. Sad! We need to make electricity great again!"
Welcome to the service industry where one side of the road is massage parlors by day and the other side of the road is strip clubs by night.
I actually sold them 2 MWh more last year than I purchased from them. They will be coming after me ...
They hired me almost 20 years ago.
