I think we will be seeing a lot more of this across all sectors too. On the local news last night, I saw the city of Portland is owed some $28M in back water bills by residents from the last 2 years as they suspended cutting people's water off for non-payment during the pandemic. Now they're owed a lot and no one's paying, so they're shutting a lot of people's water off and talking about raising rates on everyone else to make up for the loss.
