Sys' pretentious posting style has garnered him the support of many a fool in the Pit. There is no mystery why, these people are not intelligent.
It's not arguable reducing the use of cheap energy necessarily increases the use of more expensive energy. Energy is extremely inelastic. Why anyone would doubt this is unknown. It's also not arguable that when utilities (those government empowered monopolies that sell energy) seek rates hikes to offset increased costs, that poorer people are harmed to a greater degree. Again, why anyone would argue this is unknown. None of these things promote economy and, in fact, reduce it (contrary to Sys' mindless assertion/bad troll). This is a simple concept. To what degree the impact is negative is certainly debatable, but also well documented.
