California E&S Insurance

It's totally nuts to charge a higher fee for electricity to higher-income households. For consumption, people should pay the same fee for the same service. Why stop at electricity, should higher-income people pay a higher price per gallon for gas? What about for garbage collection, should higher income people pay more for the same bins? It just goes against a basic sense of fairness. CA already has one of the most progressive tax structures of any state, why is it taking every jab to make it even more so? Sure make a connection fee, but everyone should pay the same connection fee for the same service. And its a bigger spit in the face to make the the connection fee for higher incomes 5x times lower income. So say two homes use the same exact energy, say 360kwH a month, is it fair for someone to pay more then double? FOR THE SAME SERVICE? I keep reading that lower income people pay a higher share of income for electricity and that is "inequitable" - that's just life. WTF are people going on about? Lower income people pay a higher share of their income on all goods because they have lower income. under that argument we should have a higher fee for all services for all higher income people. Its just fundamentally unfair to charge more for the same service because of how much money you make.
