Energy Deregulation

[Overhemd]

I got an email from my Mom, of all people, trying to get me to join a company she is "working" with who sells energy.

Your electric and natural gas bill is made up of 3 parts, the supply, distribution and taxes. The supply portion of your bill is about 75% of your bill where the other 25% is made up of distribution and taxes. The supply is the only thing that changes, the local utility company still does maintenance and billing. When you are able to lower the supply portion of your bill, you lower your entire energy bill by up to 20%. Energy for a household or a business used to be one of those very fixed monthly expenses that got paid, come rain or shine, no matter what other economic forces were at play in the budget.

Now you have the ability to make money with a home based business in one of the biggest industries in the world. Deregulation of an industry only happens once. We have seen this happen with telecom in 1984 and the airlines in 1979. Both of these events created wealth for those who took advantage of the energy deregulation opportunity.

So my question....do you think this is a illegitimate business opportunity or a "get-rich-quick" pyramid scheme? What are your thoughts?

I don't see the connection between deregulation of energy with telecom or the airlines. Airlines is a travel industry, not energy production and distribution. It doesn't work as a comparison. Deregulation can do some bad things depending on the impact.

I want to study about this field/............
