    I don't think it's going to be as terrible as it sounds.

    First, the four biggest providers said this:

    Xcel -- $250-300
    Centerpoint -- $300-400
    MERC -- $250-300
    Great Plains Gas -- $200-300

    So, $400 grabs the headlines, but that's misleading.

    Second, the way gas pricing works is that in September they "true up" the actual costs of gas compared with what they charged. Any over or under charges are then spread out over the next 12 months. Thus, the cost to you would likely be $20-25/month over the course of a year, starting in September. That assumes that there aren't other factors between now and September that affect the price either up or down.

    Furthermore, the PUC is looking at spreading that "true up" over a longer period to help out consumers.
    That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

    • Yeah. I don't think it will be as a big of a deal as some are making it out to be.

          The AG must be a piece of work, because even the Governor and the Republican controlled House in SD are after him. They demanded he step down, and when he didn't they started impeachment proceedings.

              • Texas.

                18-wheeler loses control.

                Careens onto railroad crossing.

                110-car train passes exactly at that moment.

                First 11 cars of the train are filled with gasoline, coal, and petroleum chemicals.

                      Yeah, but he surely owned the libs while he was doing it. It's really all that matters.

                        Why is this guy not being charged with anything other than misdemeanors?

                            Wasn’t a news article so take it FWIW, but I read for it to be upgraded to anything higher than a misdemeanor in South Dakota there needs to be intoxication.

                            Of course, when you’re given 18 hours to take the toxicology test, you’re not likely to show anything.

                              Assuming this is true, he ought to be charged with negligent homicide even if he was stone cold sober. But it's one of the ($*%($ing Dakotas, so he'll skate. Hope the family can at least sue the pants off of him for wrongful death.
