KCET SoCal Connected focuses on DWP's Brian D'arcy, IBEW union chief

Check the SoCal Connected show tonight at 8:30 (Friday, Ch. 28) for the show on Brian D'arcy, IBEW union local chief.

There's a lot of arrogance that you can witness with your own ears and eyes and try to make sense of all these past and proposed rate hikes that continue to gouge and abuse customers in L.A.

D'arcy is the union's boss and is very professional, not allowing any emotion to enter the picture when you consider the rest of the Non-IBEW workers are getting screwed. Very dispassionate and takes it in stride.

The real villains turn out to be the Council and Mayors present and past who enable all of this runaway train to have gathered so much speed and power. They easily approve things when their palms, or campaign warchests, as the case may be, happen to be greased with cash, the lubricant of politics.

See again to get the idea they try to sell and see if you think all is right in the Land of Oz.
