My personal opinion is that you either need to make utilities a competitive private industry (which I don't see as efficient or effective due to the infrastructure needed to deliver to a population) or you need to make it a non-profit government run operation (realizing that your going to get government incompetence and inefficiencies as well) vs this incestous for-profit government sanctioned monopoly (the worst of both worlds).
