Fuzzy math from CPS (or your energy bills are keep rising)

The numbers keep looking worse and worse from CPS and its nuke-driven future.

Let's review
- The initial proposal for the two new reactors in 2007 was $5.4 billion
- As the people demanded a concrete figure, CPS in 2009 put it at $13 billion
- Last month, we learned that the 5% rate increase was going to be more like 9.5%
- Now, it is just been released that the construction cost alone is at least $17 billion

The cost for ratepayers has almost quadrupled before a single thing has been constructed, before a single kilowatt hour of energy is produced.

Oh yeah, and then CPS keep throwing OUR money into a pork-barrel project that brings no jobs or benefits to working families of San Antonio.

CPS keeps nuking our pocketbook. Ya basta! Think Green San Antonio.
Tell City Council - No to a Nuclear Future, Yes to weatherization, Yes to solar

(and on another note, the second worker constructing the new CPS coal-fired power plant just died from a work-site accident, CPS comments ' “Any time that there's any type of construction, situations like this can occur.” read more here)... CPS bad for workers, bad for ratepayers, bad for the planet.
