The tea party and just your regular run of the mill PUBS don't mind the regular folks paying more for their electric bills because they get paid back with their dividend checks. <br />Do the research. Dividends paid by FPL have risen sharply since Early Cost Recovery was passed. Their stock went from ho hum dividends to about #3 on the must buy list.

The Herald is up against the ropes and will do backflips to keep a well-paying advertiser. Note, for instance, that the Herald removed John Dorschner's critical article from the website in which he detailed safety violations at Turkey Point, but kept FPL's rebuttal on the Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37248244.post-9230782598967138372014-02-26T12:57:07.529-05:002014-02-26T12:57:07.529-05:00Question?
