Getting rid of restaurants meshes nicely with their newest effort to get rid of all food.

Gas stove tops can boil water much faster than electric.

My 20-something daughter, who is a brainwashed lib, loves to cook. In her apartment she has an electric stove and doesn't like it because it takes so long to boil water. She told me her next living quarters MUST have a gas stove.

When the time comes and she is told NO, you cannot have a gas stove, I wonder how she'll react. My guess is she'll accept it and move on without seeing the bigger picture.

Barbecue Rule Adopted to Take a Bite Out of Smog

October 6, 1990

Moving their battle against smog to back-yard barbecues and beach cookouts, Southern California air quality officials Friday adopted the nation’s only rule intended to force consumers to use environmentally sound ways to cook outdoors.

Smog-causing barbecue equipment--including traditional types of lighter fluid and pre-soaked briquettes--must be removed from store shelves in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties by January, 1992, under the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s new rule.

“It’s a very small bite (in smog), but it’s a necessary one,” said Marvin Braude, an AQMD board member and Los Angeles city councilman. “We must regulate individuals’ activities. . . . This is a genuine and important aspect of cleaning the air.”

The regulation marks one of the first times that Southern California consumers have been required to change their habits to clean the region’s notoriously smoggy air. But it will not be the last. Sixteen other polluting household products--from bug spray to air fresheners--will be targeted by the state Air Resources Board next week.

Yep, last severe ice storm we had I the early 1970’s gave us an inch of ice on everythibg. Beautiful to see but went without electricity for 4 days.

Might be too late, government has gotten too big, too out of control, and all it will take is another good narrative or outrage, and they will forget all about the attempts to ban this or that by administrative fiat.

Blah, blah, blah. It’s going to happen, with little pushback from the people.

There is one way to stop this nonsense - vote for people who will change the laws and reign in the regulatory agencies. Until Americans do that, they will continue to get this nonsense. Banning gas stoves still is on the bureaucrats’’ agenda. It will just be done in a more stealthy way.

Have the Republicans in the House put forth legislation Banning any and all taxpayer funds from being used to purchase Natural Gas or Propane??

WHY NOT?
Force them to live up to their own dogma.

It is time to get rid of activists that legislate form their unelected positions using power that was never theirs.

Someone from the Hill is reporting about “diktats” and “rebelling”? And it was printed?

How can this be?

Throw the bums out! These greenie bums are the worst. You know, the ones feeding at the public trough while “working” from home and doing nothing useful.

I hate my electric stove. I was raised on gas...my daughter was, too...and she got a gas stove when they built their house in 1992.

Wishful thinking that this would be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

The sheeple have the attention span of a gerbil and an affinity for the next bright shiny thing. The whole affair will be forgotten in days.

Squirrel!
