"In 1925, only half of American houses had electrical power. Thanks in great part to FDR’s Rural Electrification Act of 1936, by 1945, 85 percent of American homes were powered by electricity, with virtually all homes having electricity by 1960."

Focus is on what happens over the next few years, what sorts of things we need to keep in mind when we revisit the program, and who bears the costs when we do so.
