The absolute worst case where all the money get misused is still not as bad as burning electricity.

No, burning electricity is just "wasting" a resource. Someone stupidly (or maliciously) misusing money can do a lot more damage.

The guy who's wasting electricity also gets money that they then can (and will) misuse.
