Happily, and in fact it's the only responsible thing to do for somebody that says they care about struggling families!

Struggling families: off-grid electricity generation for clean fertilizers do not affect your electricity rates. Anybody who tries to get you angry about that is misdirecting your attention from the factors that do affect your electricity prices. If you want lower electricity prices, focus on reigning in your PUC to represent you rather than utility profits.

Or cut out the middle man and get your own solar. Who are the people in California paying $0.35/kWh to the power company when rooftop solar is less than a third of that?

Struggling families can’t buy their own off grid power generation.

I take this one rather personally as a friend of mine has had his power shut off now for the last month. I set him up with a gasoline generator which seems like the opposite of green. Electric should be very cheap and abundant.

		> Struggling families can’t buy their own off grid power generation. The premise is that the installment payments on the solar system are less than the monthly bill from paying the power company for the same amount of electricity. It can't be the thing they can't afford when it's the thing that costs less.

Right? You can go off grid anywhere. Well in some places you legally can't, and need to remain connected with a connection fee, but nobody is forcing you to draw any power from it.
