A political system where corporations own most of the mass media, where billionaires buy politicians, and where private-interest lobbyists shape legislation cannot legitimately be described as democratic. Call it what you want, but "democracy" isn't it.

De gasprijs is het laagste punt in meer dan een jaar
(In december 2021 hadden we nog een lockdown)
Onze waarschuwing dat er misbruik gemaakt kan worden van het prijsplafond lijken echter waarheid te worden.

Hogere kosten doorberekenen in prijzen en dan toch hogere winst boeken: iets klopt er niet in dit verhaal... #profiteering
En natuurlijk tekent de journo het op zonder zich die vraag te stellen...

The Mirror's front page today must be a wake up call for the government and fire bosses.
These findings further support our new research with : firefighters, like those at Grenfell, are suffering from cancer due to exposure to toxic contaminants.

Don’t tell me corporations have no choice but to raise prices.
Corporate profits are at a 70-year high.
Stock buybacks are expected to reach $1 TRILLION this year.
News flash: They’re using inflation as cover to squeeze more money out of you.

Als een Zweeds staatsbedrijf het kan, waarom zouden we het dan zelf niet kunnen? 80% van Nederland vindt dat we onze energie weer moeten nationaliseren. Al bijna 40.000 mensen tekenden daarom onze volkspetitie om dit voor elkaar te krijgen.
Teken ook!

Trouwens, vorig jaar zat ik ook ver onder gemiddeld gebruik en kreeg geld terug. (historisch gebruik basis is dit niet)
Ook geeft
geen berekening door incl. energiecompensatie (380 nov/dec).
Wat is de kortste klap.. geschillen commissie, of ??

En deze bedrijven krijgen door het prijsplafond dus miljarden van ons belastinggeld. Laten we daar minimaal zeggenschap voor terugeisen. Maar veel beter: nationaliseer onze energievoorziening.

This feels just like the 9th August, 2007.... This time more people are aware and hurting already... This time the crisis can't be brushed under the carpet as central bankers tried to do in Aug 2007.....

I know the last 7 years have felt like a fever dream, but still trying to get my head round the response to a cost of living crisis being to cut taxes for the rich. If that happened in a cartoon I’d think it was stretching things a bit. Am I in a coma?

If you really want to understand skyrocketing prices, take a look at monopoly power.
The economy is at least 50% more concentrated now than it was in 2005.
In a market with only a few massive corporations who can coordinate price hikes, everyone gets shafted.

Dank voor de vele mails over de individuele situatie met de energierekening. Voor een aantal situaties heb ik eigen berekeningen gemaakt (vraag niet waneer ik dat gedaan heb)
In een aantal gevallen leidt het plafond tot een hogere(!) rekening.
Bijvoorbeeld bij een warmtepomp
