Communists think you should have a tiny house with a wife and 1 or 2 kids. I have a big house, a wife and 4 kids. We use a lot of electricity. Our provider is CLECO. What they do is charge a small amount per kw up to so much, a medium amount up to a limit and then for climate killers like myself, an astronomical amount for a lot of use. This is how they start to punish people who don't follow their ideology. I installed a window air conditioner in my living room. I only run it to cool the main part of the house during the day. I turn on the central unit only at night. We are all going to have to figure out ways to cut back from now on.

FYI they only charge extra from May to October. November to April is fixed.

Also, it isn't communist ideals that are a result of a sliding scale per kWh it is capitalism. The company is incentivizing you to reduce your peak usage because they have to build their entire system around peak usage, not average usage. If they can reduce peak usage their operating costs go down. There are points in peak usage that if they regularly go over in an area or system-wide they will have to spend large amounts of capital just to service those peaks.
