“New refrigerators will occupy the same space in your kitchen as today but will only hold a gallon of milk and a pound of butter”
Comrade, you will receive enough refrigerator space to hold your monthly food ration. Now stop complaining and go help with the sugar cane harvest!/sarcasm
A time lock that will only permit you to open your frig once every hour. This will have multiple benefits to the consumer. It will decrease energy use by limiting the loss of cold air by the user opening the door multiple times in a short period of time. The user will be forced to plan his trip to the frig to get everything he will need in a single visit.
Finger print reader locks. These will be for families with children to prevent grazing youngsters from making hourly trips to the frig to see if there is anything to snack on. Added benefit is to prevent obese children from uncontrolled eating.
Annoying door ajar alarm that sounds once per second while the frig door is open. This prevents you from accidentally leaving the door open. The alarm will also grow in intensity continuously after the door has been open for more than 15 seconds. This is an incentive to the consumer to not to graze or visit the frig just because he is board.
These features may seem absurd and I intend them as satire but I can easily see features like these being mandated by this administration.
