    Do you not make a monthly payment for water and power? If not, then where do you live so that I move there?

      There’s a difference between paying for usage and paying for access.

      Although with all the fees added, most of what you pay isn’t even usage anymore…

      California, I have rainwater collection that amounts to 3200 gallons, and solar panels. Power company pays my water bill.

      I have a filter to use the water for drinking or cooking but currently just use it to water plants

        Cool. But you’re not OP, though. I bet California has utility companies that charge monthly.

          They do, but as you’ve agreed elsewhere it’s long since past time to nationalize utilities, telecommunications, education, madecine, and basic housing.
