they could take hot showers only between 4 a.m. and 8 a.m., 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., and 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. each day, the Financial Times reported.
People can only take hot showers for 10 hours a day - LoL!
Europe will be forged in crisis, and will be the sum of the solutions adopted for those crises.

This is not an unintended consequence by far. This is designed to create demand for certain policies and certain types of leadership to implement them.

“Good job Merkel and euro-greenies!”
She’s not alone. Most Leftists are exactly to blame. The question is, will they ever change. Ever acknowledge the disasters their policies resulted in? The obvious answer is, Highly Unlikely. They are Zealots.
Donald Trump told them this would be the result of their STUPIDITY. The man was ridiculed for it. And, as usual, Trump was 100% Correct.

Looks like Germany’s plan is they’ll be off Russian gas by 2024.....By that time Ukraine conflict will be far over.
....so how much idling will they be doing waiting in long lines with their engines running this winter.

Trump is a real estate developer but he also knows the oil and gas industry and marketing a lot better than any of these silly women and their woke male enablers running the EU.

The German people, so smart yet so dumb.
Germans are great at engineering, terrible at politics.

Not to mention their vast public transportation systems, which run on gas and electricity.
They’ll also have to reduce the speed on the Autobahn. from 90 to 40 to save gas.
Remind me, why did we rebuild this corrupt nation after WWII?

“Punishing Putin” in theory is “punishing Western Countries” in practice.
All of the boomeranging Suicide Sanctions need to be ended immediately.
