Shouldn't be bad except for summer. Don't have a place with high ceilings
>natural gas
Pointless. Get induction for cooking.
>water
Don't waste what you can't afford. Have to deal with it.
>cable
Lol
>internet
Only thing worth spending on. Doesn't matter if you don't live stream or game heavily.
>trash
Not that pricey at all.

Induction is inferior to high BTU gas.

My strategy is to let things like gas and water lapse for months or years because it takes them a hell of a lot of effort. Then I call them on the phone and tell them I can't pay the debt and will need to declare bankruptcy. Then they usually settle for 1/10th what I owe them.

This is the #1 reason people litter and illegally dump in America. They wanted me to pay them $100 to throw away a refrigerator. Any guesses where it went?

These industries should be nationalized otherwise people will just illegally dump and litter because they'll need to pay to throw stuff away. At least if it is nationalized, they aren't pay directly and can throw as much crap away as they please.

This is true, using electricity to generate heat is incredibly inefficient in an economic sense (ironically the most efficient energy transfer tho)
