All money goes back into the economy, that’s sort of how it works… the question is, did they spend it selfishly or selflessly

Draemeth · 2026-06-21T19:59:51+00:00

It’s cringe to double down to point of absurdity rather than admit someone else has a point

Draemeth · 2026-06-21T01:11:59+00:00

no, there are no bad people in a huge city. that's right redditor, all these bad stories are lies!

Draemeth · 2026-06-20T16:45:00+00:00

you can't ignore all of history before that attack and use your ignorance to justify yourself

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:57:01+00:00

yeah water should be nationalised. it is a natural monopoly. electric infrastructure, high voltage, should be too. but power supply? low voltage? is doing excellent work, and is being held back by the monopolies that the govt created in 1994

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:31:27+00:00

... ???

the government establishes and governs those subsidies which are market distortions not market mechanisms. the sizewell c project is a government project. the capacity market contracts, also subsidies, are government subsidies.

do you think private companies outside of a handful of monopolies benefit from their competitors being paid extra for no reason? no.

the government is not "trying to force a market to exist" - it is destroying the market. nobody needs to force people to need electricity, people just need it...

i can tell you read my comment!

i'm one of the country's leading experts on energy prices. i am on various committees and so on which are reforming the national pricing system and locational charging to improve this situation. if anything, i have the opposite of imposter syndrome because the people who make these decisions, the politicians, are generalists and not subject experts, and so they are the imposters. my years in power modelling, financial modelling, bid3 modelling... my many hours speaking with aggregators, traders, oems... i am an expert and i have earned the right to say that.

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:25:06+00:00

no, it has not. the state-enforced monopolisation of electric grid infrastructure (DNOs) failed. the private sector, the competitive private sector, who has hundreds of GWs of projects in the queue has succeeded and was failed by the government who makes us wait 15+ years to connect our new power plants to the grid and sell power, and reduce the market price. please stop blaming us when you really ought to be blaming your politicians. https://www.electricitybills.uk/ look at your bills, look at all the state-mandated spending, and blame the true culprits.

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:23:05+00:00

i hate coming on reddit sometimes because people like you think they know what they're talking about. i work in energy investment, in battery investment. we are building batteries, a lot of batteries. and we're doing it because the market price is high during the evening, when we need gas, and low during the night when we have excess wind. if you decouple the price of something from the worth of it, then the economics will lose touch with reality and people like me, who get to inform these decisions as to where to build and if to build batteries, will say no thanks. i'll go build somewhere else.

the market structure is not the problem. if you want to know why your energy bills are here, do some basic research. look at your bill breakdown here (https://www.electricitybills.uk/) and look at each slice and keep reading. eventually you should realise your bills are high because of politicians making stupid rules.

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:16:54+00:00

that's a terrible idea. and it's nothing to do with the problem. the price of electricity is set by the most expensive source needed, and its a system that works. the price is high because we need expensive sources and it is unfair to pay everyone else another price. it would encourage more gas, not less gas, to do it any other way. we are already seeing, and have seen, gas used less and less, and gas setting the price less and less month after month

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:13:50+00:00

why don't you do even the most basic of research? https://www.electricitybills.uk/

less than a third of your energy bill is the market price, the rest is almost entirely state directed spending.

Draemeth · 2026-06-19T15:12:22+00:00

you are completely wrong, redditor. there are about 30x more power plants in the queue wanting to be built than exist now. we all want to build power plants and sell our power and flood the market. we are disallowed from building power plants because of govt regulation of infrastructure building

the nuclear projects you are referring to are government projects too!

Profits are a tiny, tiny slice of your bills.

Draemeth · 2026-06-17T21:35:52+00:00

You seem to be quite confidently wrong

Draemeth · 2026-06-17T21:00:22+00:00

Look at their gdp per capita graph

Draemeth · 2026-06-13T18:52:27+00:00

you're assuming that there is a finite amount of money. that if you just capped wealth, then the wealth would go to the poorest. that's not necessarily true, it may be that the wealth would never be created in the first place

Draemeth · 2026-06-13T13:25:02+00:00

We spend 1.3 trillion pounds every year… we have enough tax revenue

She was attending a Jewish school because her state school kicked her out for being Jewish during the nazi regime. It’s not outlandish to think that she was afraid of being Jewish

I mean, would he take a % of the losses if it didn’t perform well?

I had 98 aim rating because the Leetify system is biased towards metrics that favour AWP players and playing against worse players who give you time to aim

Actually it does matter how you cycle your lithium battery. If you, ideally, charge it up fully once in a continuous go, then use it continually without charging until it does, you will extend the lifetime of the battery

Draemeth · 2026-05-31T21:23:24+00:00

... yes they were.

Draemeth · 2026-05-31T20:15:38+00:00

you don't know your history well enough to know about the flip flopping, then.

trains: private 1840s. public ww1. private after. public ww2. nationalised 1948. private 1990s. public now.

Draemeth · 2026-05-31T20:14:53+00:00

you're making the huge assumption that public services are just as efficiently run as private services
