My dumb ass husband would love limits on driving, heat in winter. We do not have air conditioning and NYC summers can be brutal. He is a vegan and does not eat beef or any other animal products. The only thing that would piss the cheap skate off would be having to pay for mandatory “green” items like solar panels, electric cars, etc.
My sympathy for the life of differing political views you describe (and on your homepage which is like a concise short story in itself). You have a lot of character to cope so well.
A shallow person couldn’t do it.
Hope the negative side of the Biden and Kamala mandates will cause a big counter-reaction.
And my best to you.
