The title of that article is bullshit. It says Peoples Gas seeks the first rate hike in 8 years, but I can tell you my gas bill has more than doubled in just the past 3 years. 3 years ago, my gas bill was $100 for a serious January, now it is $200, and that's after massive weatherization by me with caulk, weather stripping, water heater insulation, you name it. Peoples Gas is a fraudulent company. It is a criminal organization powered by dirty government deals.
