Our power has been out in Butte County since shortly before 8 last night. Still off. Really putting a crimp on things. Have a generator. Well water in short supply as of course it runs off a well pump. Luckily I have a hand pump on the well for water if needed...but it won’t run a washing machine.

Weather last night was goregeous...no wind.

We are being conditioned...as to what end...not yet certain.

The other problem is that I no have no gas left for the generator and of course all service stations are shut down as the pumps are off...no electric. Jeesh...

Are these “red” counties?

You know they’d never cut power to San Francisco or Los Angeles

Living or doing business in any s—-hole country, you soon learn to have your own back up power and adequate fuel. The last one I lived in I made sure our building had 100% power backup. Went and checked the genset myself. It usually ran about three hours a day. You learn to look after things yourself.

YES, you are right. Not a single socialist country can keep the power going. They ALWAYS have continual blackouts. Kiss off storing food in your fridge freezer as you will not be able to depend on the state to keep the power running.

Think Electricity instead of water

Probably just to be Rural Residents in a Socialist Utopia. :)

#5 You are living in Venezuela Cal. Road lanes cut, electricity shut off, water cut backs. High costs for gas and utilities.

Meanwhile the insiders have the taxpayers pay for their homes and cars and expenses.
