Me, in a successful private enterprise? Sure 1 am! So’s every
other rural electric member-consumer. All across the country
hundreds of rural electric systems like our own are dedicated to
bringing electric service at cost to each and every member on their
lines. No hidden charges here! We pay our taxes, own and operate
our own business in the real American democratic tradition
Private enterprise? Of course it is. Our rural electric is locally
owned and locally-controlled riglu in its own area. How private
can you get? And that means a lot too! After all, who can best
understand our local needs? Why, the folks living here, of course!
And who can best make plans for the future? There again, the
folks who get their electric service from the rural electric. We
each have one vote at election time every year, and we each liasc
the same right to hold office on the board.
Why, our business is as American as grits or apple pie—always
has been, and we're going to keep it that way.
