Thanks GP for once again showing that when you have a monopoly in a market you can do whatever you want. Reminds me of Cox cable rates.

Our legislators pass usury laws which only allow the collection of 18% interest on any loan less than 500k. I get 1.5% on my savings at the local bank where since a child I was told to work hard and put money in the bank for retirement. I think overall Gulf Power does a great job for citizens in Northwest Florida. However, it appears that government is working very hard on guaranteeing to increase our expenses, allow banks to charge any amount of interest up to 18%, all the while citizens who are in this unfair economic system get no guarantees on their rate of return on equity as thousands of babyboomers who were prudent conservative investors now basically are having their life saving poached to lend to others for 18% while government increases the rates on those same people to guarantee the wealthiest Americans can get 10.25% on their money. I understand that we can gamble in markets to increase our returns, but when America lost 17 trillion of wealth in the last collapse, it seems that Gulf Power being guaranteed 10.25% return is a bit high for the times, and just more burden on the same folks who continue to be exploited by a rigged economic system. 10.25% return on equity gets approved by our legislators.
