Why not a democRAT law requiring perpetual motion machines?
About fifty years go there was a segmented wheel that was almost a perpetual motion machine. The segments were connected with another across to the other side of the wheel, and liquid propane or some such volatile liquid was in the lower wheel.
As the bottom segment passed through warm water the liquid turned to gas and flowed to the upper chamber, back to liquid, which being off balanced rolled forward to the next segment.
The magazine MOTHER EARTH NEWS spent a large amount of their own money to make a large version of the wheel.
It didn’t work.
