What is the US “Gas Stove Ban” REALLY about? What sounds like overeach in itself, is actually a cover for something potentially far, far worse.

I think the author is touching on it.

Some control freak fever dream is smart meters determining a person has used "too much" of whatever, or whatever the daily whim happens to be with the capability to just shut off access.

Same thing with CBDCs being proposed.

That's really what is behind it. Tie it in to a sicial credit score type system and now you have a modern day "water monopoly".

There is a simple solution to remedy this, but its also why the Davos crowd has 5000 armed military guarding their "planning sessions" (they know they're up to no good).

A large, bloated federal Government banning anything is tyranny....

The better technology will just be what gets sold and installed, and the old, inferior tech will fade away.

Then government doesn't need to promote any particular technology, do they? Yet somehow, they still do - more and more actually.

If they approached the issue on the basis of efficiency they would convince more people than by using a green energy scare tactics. But enviro-nazis don’t care to persuade, only to force compliance with mandates created by The Smart People.

The RATS in the “media” claim that the demonrats are not Nazis. That’s starting to look more like a lie EVERY DAY.

I think once people meet induction cooktops, they’ll stop caring so much about their gas stovetops.

Ditto. We have had an induction stove for over 20 years and love it.

Even better instant control than gas and safer.

I won't have gas indoors on the property.

The phrase "blowed up real good" comes to mind.

Thanks for posting....a great article to share, with any frightened, CNN watchers :-)

FTA....

...What we’re seeing here looks to be your classic bait-and-switch. Having established a “problem”, the powers that be suggest a solution they have no intention of ever carrying out (the more unreasonable the better).

When this measure is inevitably rejected by the public, the government will then proceed to suggest – or pay an NGO to suggest to them – a “compromise” measure.

The compromise is no compromise at all, of course, but actually what they wanted to do from the beginning. Nevertheless, the whole process is sold in the media as a victory for whichever party happens to be in opposition, and cited as evidence that “the system works”.....

You forget to mention the Fred Upton sponsored legislation that forced the curlicue flourescent bulbs with the phsae out of incandescents. You know, the curlicue bulbs that apparently could be an environmental hazard.

The market eventually did produce LEDs, and chouce won over, but lets not let go of inconvenient acts, shall we?

Then again, given your history here, that's what you're all about.

I’ve used an induction cooktop and it did not offer me as fine a temperature control as a comparatively priced gas cooktop. They also cycle on and off like electric stoves instead of providing steady heat. I’m not impressed.

They will be ‘walking it back’ in the next few days. Or pretending to. The public will forget about it. 6 months later they will sneak it into a bill and not tell anyone about it. The public wakes up one day and it’s illegal to sell a house with gas appliances; there is no way to get one repaired.

Everyone asks “how did that happen?”

I see Stanley Steamer in the neighborhood quite often. As a matter of fact...they’re parked in our driveway about twice a year.

Just as ‘smart’ electrical meters were designed to control/suspend the flow of electricity, there will soon be remote-control valves to control gas lines coming into homes and businesses. Air Quality not so good today? No gas.

“I think once people meet induction cooktops, they’ll stop caring so much about their gas stovetops.”

Disagree. I’m on my third induction cooktop, and they SUCK. They die catastrophically, i.e. I don’t lose just ONE burner, they all go out but one. Have two others with only one working burner. WE want to go back to a gas stove because it’s vastly superior.

Yeah well I am still upset about tube tvs. And I want a gas operated vehicle. There is nothing wrong with gas. There is not enough electric.

And when everyone is charging their electric cars, and the government smart meters turn off your home’s electricity input to cover the demand, so sorry about that dinner you were cooking. Or the load of laundry you were running. Or the air conditioning you were using.

It’s about CONTROL, which you seem to quite OK with them taking over you. Wake the F up.

Correct

“You will eat your microwave bugs, and like it.”

They say microwaves can be dangerous also, but our microwave ovens supposedly keep them inside the oven.

I believe the gas stove ban idea is because if you have an all-electric house, you no longer have natural gas, so gas stoves aren’t possible in the all-electric house.

Its much easier to regulate the flow of electricity in a smart utility meter, than to regulate the flow of gas into a home.
