yeah, and the red flags thing is about the biggest myth ever. I have never known anyone to be turned into the cops by the power company. You get turned in when you steal the power, not when you pay them. the whole reason for you coming up with this calculation is false. Show me a court case where there was a successful arrest and prosecution that stemmed from law enforcement looking over power records first. You won't be able to, because it's against the law for them to just arbitrarily look at everyone's account information. Liberal state or not. If the cops are looking at your power bill, it's not because of what you're using, it's cause you slipped up somewhere else and they got a tip.
