I'm not opposed to tiered energy pricing, such that an initial energy consumption amount is billed at a low rate, with progressively more expensive energy as consumption goes up. Same with water use, etc.

Give economic incentive to conservation, but allow for excess consumption for those willing to pay more for the luxury.

That's a lot different than someone showing up with a gun and turning off the power.
