Pacific Gas & Electric 'solved' the Energy Crisis in 1973 by demanding that ALL customers reduce use by 15%, and we did; so PG&E turned around and raised their rate by 15%, which would have had to have the blessing of California's Public Utilities Commission. Brilliant!, and kinda like having hemorrhoids, but, without the hemorrhoids.
We've got to give credit to Oregon! They're asking for the pay raise first, promising the 'improvement' to follow, by unspecified means.
I'll know that they've 'done it' when Oregonians begin to walk kinda funny.
