why buy new batteries when you can buy up internally shorted ones that won’t hold a charge and piss away your power so much faster...absolutely brilliant I should have thought of using bad batteries in all my stuff.
I’ve got a number of old car batteries that don’t work. Now I just need to find a liberal who’ll buy them.
$3000 a year...Hmmmm...I’ll buy a fleet of vehicles on credit, let the power company make my payments...quit my job and live off of the rest and deduct enough fleet depreciation that I’ll never pay taxes again. Maybe I will teach perpetual motion physics at Green Mountain College with all my free time.
