"Electrical Companies" don't enjoy profits C.T.B.....
PEOPLE, REAL PEOPLE, with wives and children, who invest in them do. It usually includes teachers and fire-fighters.....
"Electrical Companies" don't laugh themselves all the way to the bank to cash their checks, the REAL HUMANS who invest their hard-earned money do. Often it's in the form of mutual funds, private 401k's and other retirement investments payed into by classes like Public school teachers, government workers, fire-fighters and cops and any private individuals with I.R.A's.
Liberals always speak of businesses as though they are abstractions that don't represent the investments of real people....usually simple middle-class people.
Failure to grasp that simple notion is why communism is idiotic, and communists and other collectivists, are idiots.
Of course they make profits else they would not be or stay in business. It is true that many utilities pay good dividends to those who invest in their stocks and bonds. See the following link:

There are utilities where the people they serve are using less electricity but are paying more, as in Alabama for instance. Is that right? Do you agree that is fine?
Are profits more important than people.
