Why are all Entergy customers getting a rate increase for damage to New Orleans?
Recently, the Public Service Commission voted in favor of a rate increase for Entergy, that allowed them to add a small fee for all Louisiana customers. This fee is going to help 'rebuild' the damaged infrastructure in New Orleans that came as a result of Hurricane Katrina. It has been suggested that this is an unfair increase. After all, why would someone in Shreveport have to suffer an increase because of a situation in New Orleans? WJBO's Bill Profita had some interesting calls regarding this topic yesterday as did Kevin Meeks and Matt Kennedy on the show this morning. What are your thoughts and do you think its right that the Public Service Commission to ok this fee?
