It doesn't pay to conserve, if they are going to take more does it?

In Atlanta, They raised the water bill because when people conserved, they couldn't collect enough revenue. Will they do the same with gas? The electric company came to my house to check my meter so he said, I asked what he was doing, he said he was sent because my Electric bill is TOO low, so they wanted him to check it. Didn't they say conserve???
