bill for December was 500 bucks. Gas heat and electric. 2 people live in this house with 2000 sq ft or less.

That's horrible. We don't want to have those bills in 100 degree summer days either. Which we had about 10 days last summer.
That is unsustainable for a family with a fixed income. Because unless you get 50-100k$ + bonuses every year, you're on a fixed income and these utilities are too high. I don't know how people afford it. We're really struggling to keep up and going into isolation to keep from spending so that we can afford these sky high utilities.
