National Fuel has yet again reported record profits.
why are these profits not passed onto the consumer by way of rebates or reductions in your bill on gas supply usage or taxes? Every year your bill goes up, yet profits are high by the utility companies.
We still have in this State the Public Service Commission, yet it is under utilized in protecting the consumer. Once again a commission that is supposed to represent the public is failing to do its job.
