   Well, Chicago is largely minority yet the power is reliable.  And you can be   
   sure the Democrats won't allow a WHITES ONLY power company.  I have no reason   
   not to think that everyone who wears a ComEd hardhat is qualified and well   
   trained, regardless of    
   race.   
      
   The place where I work uses ALOT of electric power.  And they REALLY DON'T   
   like it when power goes out, orders are delayed and people are huddled in the   
   cafeteria, getting paid for waiting for the lights to go back on.   
      
   During the last recession, the company decided to consolidate work into fewer   
   factories.  We got nearly all the work that they used to do at a factory they   
   closed in the South.  Howcum?  We get paid considerably more.  And the taxes   
   here are sky high.     
   They told us that one of the biggest factors was RELIABLE electric power.    
   They could make money even with the higher expenses here but they were running   
   at a total loss every time the electric service failed at their factory in the   
   South.   
      
   We pay more for electricity here, maybe double.  It costs money to keep up an   
   aging infrastructure.  I have no doubt that the electric service in the   
   Jackson suburbs will start falling apart in a couple of decades as more and   
   more old, overloaded    
   transformers start failing.  Even WHITE PEOPLE won't be able to keep that crap   
   running forever.   
      
   Chicago has been wired up since the days of Nikola Tesla.  We've made a   
   commitment to keep it working, at least in most neighborhoods.  Sometimes you   
   actually do get what you pay for.   
      
   But that's my explanation.  If I'm wrong, please set me straight.
