>>>In a real free market, more likely than not electricity would be generated and supplied by regionally-situated vertically-integrated monopolies, just as it was in the early days...<<<

So according to you in a real free market we get electricity generated by monopolies..(my previously mentioned defacto free market monopolies)...with higher prices. Geez, what a deal!...What a leap forward!...Sign me up!
