You already have the ability to control your energy costs with the technology that is available to you right now. Add solar, add windmill, add storage (batteries), increase your wall insulation/thickness, and disconnect from the grid. There is always a ton of research continuously ongoing in all areas of energy...production, efficiency, storage, etc. Not sure about the "woe is me" tone of your posts in this thread.:@ I'm sure that there are those, living in remote locations, that survive fine on even less energy than you. It's all about needs and choices. I have no need (currently) to live on less than 150kWh per month. That's not sneering, that's simply what I choose.
My decreasing ability to pay bills is the fundamental question. It has ZERO to do with comparing Mexico to the USA. Some people can stay even with the gradient of ever increasing ARTIFICIALLY MANIPULATED cost of living. I cannot. Not being 95% disabled.
I have a valid USA passport. I have a valid Mexican passport. The Mexican passport is issued by the Secretary of Relationes Exteriores. That is how I have a valid IFE Mexican voting card. I am a citizen a voting citizen of both countries.
This forum is not the time nor is it the place for discussing politics. However it is the place to discuss technology with regard to waste. Especially when waste is endangering my basic life style.

At least I myself me, has taken upon myself to unburden USA society of my imposition. I use less than 150 kWh per month. I repair rather than replace. And I do not live like a bum. I doubt if 99 percent of those that sneer could last a month.
You claim to want to examine ways to decrease waste and save money, but you seem to be more interested in putting down those that you somehow deem responsible for a difficulty in paying your bills. Sorry, not gonna play that game.
