These two questions are at the forefront of research in economic history and important elements of public discussions.

I'm not terribly keen on the differential pricing for electricity either.

But does that also mean that TNB's reduced rates for the first 200kwh is also bad policy? I have no idea of the true cost of electricity but I'm guessing 21.8 sen/kwh is not reflective.roger dodgerhttp://roger.dodger.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6297413898275266606.post-69702051165747476572014-04-16T10:51:06.056+08:002014-04-16T10:51:06.056+08:00IT.Scheiss,

Conversely, education intervention for adults tends to be expensive and ineffective.<br /><br />But all this is beside the point.
