This reminds me of the Californians complaining about PG&E charging so much for electricity. Even on the right wing shows they just blame PG&E (the power company) but ignore the fact that the state created a monopoly, then doesn't allow the power companies to build power generation plants. Then they force solar on the people and incentivize it which causes other infrastructural problems. On top of that California has price controls on energy. But to cut through it all the real reason the energy is so expensive in California is because they have to import so much power from outside generators who obviously charge more than the solar generators or existing plants in the state.

The problem is centralization. Monopoly created by the state and price controls. Its not just greed. Greed always exists.
