This a ridiculous idea and he should be sued.
How are hospitals, nursing homes and Alzheimer’s centers supposed to operate in the dark?
“How are hospitals, nursing homes and Alzheimer’s centers supposed to operate in the dark?”
Wait! *flipping through liberal reasons* Ah, here it is: “FOR THE CHILDREN!”
BTW, have you wondered how they detect whether you are using your illegal fireplace? Because satellite sensors can detect the heat bloom and chimney smoke. The same will be true of gas generators. They’ll either send you a ticket in the mail or have someone come by, smash your door, handcuff you on the couch, shoot the Pomeranian*, and steal your generator.
* They’ll probably have to haul him out from under the bed.
Natural gas or diesel I guess
It won’t affect anything except for the things we commoners use or need. Hospitals, schools and whatever other entities are connected to the government can do what they want.
Punish anyone who is not dependent on the government for something.
Can you say Fascism?
It only applies to portable generators. Medical facilities and government buildings will not be affected. Just private ownership for stiffs like us. No generators for your home, motorhome, camping, picnics, etc.
Maybe someday in the future there will be options, but right now, and extended outage The only full proof method for reliable back up power is generators running off some petroleum product, whether gasoline diesel natural gas, etc.
Batteries have their place for short term power, Usually limited to a few hours at best, but in a long-term outage you want something that can reliably run for hours, if not days and be quickly refueled. Right now, batteries do not have that capability to be recharged and last required time frames for things like hospitals, Waste water treatmentstations, etc.
