Once upon a time, the mantra of the libertarian Left was "keep the government out of the bedroom."
President Joe Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi want to regulate any gadget or appliance with an electric switch that turns on in your house or your driveway. New Department of Energy rules will dictate the amount of water that comes out of your showerhead, how much warm air comes out of your heater and how much cool air comes out of air conditioners. There is even talk about gadgets monitoring your home's temperature in the winter and summer months.
How is any of this the government's business?
The latest shower regulations are especially aggravating.

Of course, government officials will be exempt from these diktats.

In our area the electric company send a letter saying they are going to charge more for electricity from 1pm-8pm May thru September. I hate the smart meters. They kept bugging me to get one installed on our old home, but when we moved we had to get one. They will monitor us but I'm certain they aren't held the same standards....

Defund all government agencies not covered by enumerated powers.

When you are found to be comfortable they will, with the “smart meters” just turn your electricity OFF.

I'll be interested to see how they shut off power to those with solar panels. Trucks with cranes, that spray whitewash over them? Tar? No, that's a petrochemical. Probably just interrupt the cable from them with a 'smart meter'.

There was a Seinfeld episode about 30 years ago dealing with a NYC mandate on low flow showers. There was a black marklet in regular shower heads, of course.

May be a ploy to get people on solar. If you have your own power system with battery cell you control your power.

Once the word gets out, I think maybe people will be lining up to petition a RECALL on Biden. Everyone knows his election was a FRAUD. How do you like him now? If the answer is Not Much, maybe the thing to do (if you live in one of the Five States that allowed Biden to steal the election) would be march to your Governor's mansion and demand they declare the election in their State was actually won by Trump. It will be a fight to the finish, but we need to win this one or our Country as we know it will be gone forever. We can't leave Biden in Office for Two more years! Think what he will get done! Nope! There has to be a way to declare those state's elections fraudulent and pull back the Electors! Has it ever been don before? I don't know, but I DO know we had better find a way to do it. And Soon!!

FJB wants a pre-cradle to post-grave nanny state. No way FJB, no way. There are 10 amendments to the Constitution that says so. Read them, Joe. Read them. Ignore them at your own peril.

I have an idea, let's regulate the government instead.
This is coming from the same people who would let you kill your baby, as a mater of fast celebrate that decision, but arrest you if you chose to take your baby home with the car seat facing in the wrong direction.

This reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where the mayor made everyone in New York City change their shower heads to low flowing to save water. Everyone's hair came out flat and greasy, so Kramer went underground and found Serbian shower heads, which supposedly would solve the problem, banning Serbian shower heads to be imported, I am sure.
Bide must have read that script and adapted it to his regime.
Here we are with criminals both domestic and foreign killing and stealing, brining all kinds of diseases and child exploitation, and he is worrying about people using water. "Lock Him UP".

I still remember the Bolshevik idea of low flow toilets. Created to save water supposedly. You have to flush several times, and clean and plunge them twice as often. Liberals exist to cause misery, and we let them.

My new dishwasher takes almost 3 hours to get things somewhat less clean that my 20 yr old one. Curly, flickering light bulbs anyone?

The Government is trying to free up electricity availability for all those EV's they're trying to force on us.

Electric buses ? We live in a small city, but we travel 5-30 miles to appointments in many other locales, and the buses do NOT go these locations or if they do, we would be traveling for HOURS. A physician appt that now overall takes 1-3 hours could take a whole day. The Govt is infiltrated with damn fools, none of whom have to live under the rules/laws they mandate.

The government has been dramatically increasing the cost to buy and own all refrigeration devices.....auto air conditioners, home AC, and refrigerators and freezers in the last 30+ years.
First the "ozone hole" scam, a purely fraudulent line of BS about leaked refrigerant gases (called "freons") which they claimed "rose up into the stratosphere" where they destroyed the ozone for years and years.
Major factual (real science) problem with this fraudulent claim. Freons are VERY heavy gases, dozens of times denser than air. They will "rise up into the stratosphere" in the exact same way that granite boulders laying in the bottom of Lake Superior will "rise up and float on the surface" --- which is to say NEVER, EVER.
So, now the more expensive replacement refrigerants, which cost a dozen times what the old refrigerants did, and were patented, so no competition, and which required higher pressures, so the refrigeration system parts are more expensive to make, are out of patent. Time to run the same "make the chemical companies rich again" scam, which will, once again, increase your cost of refrigerators and further enrich the chemical companies in league with these eco-scammers.
All lies, 100%.

Biden should be restricted to a two minute shower every other day in the unairconditioned White House like we are going to have to do. Start all these rules with the government offices and employees.
(Wow - will he be stinky!)
