Well, a year ago it was about $700, about the same price, but we used 15% less electricity than we did last year. So that means to me, Our electric rates are probably 10 to 15% higher than they were a year ago. Now, there's a whole lot of reasons for that that are legitimate. We have an aging infrastructure. We have these stupid green mandates which are driving up the cost because you have to buy solar and wind that are super expensive, right? (22:48–22:53)

CLAIM
