I do not want the legislature setting my power costs. That's absolutely a recipe for disaster.

Let me put in solar to lower my costs and let the solar company put in solar to lower their costs if they want. Then they can pass the savings on to me (ha ha).

Most utility companies in USA are already regulated regarding pricing

Sounds plausible but reality is the utilities may not pass discounts down to consumers or the savings won’t be realized. Ideally decentralized solar gives individual users control and back to the consumer. The land required for solar farms usually is far from the actual consumer and requires long transmission lines.

Yes, that’s why any money given would be conditional like I mentioned…

It’s not really feasible in reality
