I suspect at some critical point...where we’ve reached the 95 percent point of what we can produce...we will come up with a list of the folks who use three times the amount of power of a normal average American family. We’ll send these folks a friendly letter where we detail that we are limiting them to this three times level...and NO more.
The “Al Gores” of America...all 250,000 of them...who consume vast amounts of power to heat their pools and run all kinds 24-hour saunas....will suddenly ask why? I recall reading last year of a guy in Arizona building a 4,500 square foot home in Tucson...and kept thinking it’ll have to be cooled and the guy has to burn at least five times what a average family would burn on power.
The same story is true on malls and stores. Consider that before the mid-1960s....most major stores in America did not have AC units. The same solution will occur to these people. And even the federal buildings around the nation...will eventually fall into this same solution.
This is precisely what the environmentalists created with this entire strategy. They know that by not challenging via the court system the halt for nuke power construction...we are simply building this bridge to a eventual limit for citizens.
Face it...the nation survived for easily 150 years without AC, and we could do so today if we had to. The same is true with heated pools and vast freezers in the garage.
We survived a lot longer than 150 years without environmentalists.
There’s a backlash coming against them,(& their media & Congressional stooges) and THEY will one day be an endangered species.
Americans will not stand for being FORCED to go “black” in order to be “green”.
We have the means, and the NEED, to expand our energy capabilities.
Do we have the WILL?
