Did anybody mention that PSNH, the Public Service of New Hampshire has received permission from the NH Public Utilities Commision to raise their electric rates by 3.8% in 2009. PSNH had asked for a ten percent raise due to high oil prices and settled for 3.8% when oil prices fell.

The members of the SEA, State Employees Assn, which is a union representing 15000 NH state employees will be getting a 5.5% raise starting this month.

So, what state revenue source will pay for that; business profits, real estate transfer, or the 8% lodging & meals?
