Not paying electricity bills can be deadly

I was astonished this morning while listening to the BBC and hearing that in New Zealand, a sick woman, Mrs Folole Muliaga passed away because she did not pay her electricity bills.

Actually, the woman was very sick, and had to breath with the help of an oxygen machine. When the guy from the company came to cut the power off, he was warned by the relatives that it could be deadly to the woman. However, and according to the BBC account, the guy from the company coldly said something like "i'm doing my job, am here to cut power off" and that's what he did. Mrs Folole Muliaga, a mother of four, died two hours later at the age of forty-four, victim of the system.

I wonder.

Apparently humans are lacking their humanity lately.
