The day will come when the progressives begin to require Save the Whales Thermostats. The name is nonsense but so are most things that come from the progressives.
These Thermostats will only have two settings on them: Heat and Cool. The temperature will be preset at the factory. If you want it to heat the temp will be 68º. If you want A/C it will only cool to 74º. These will be smart thermostats so that the governing VAC Czar can radio changes if he is having a bad day at the office.
This does not require much of a gift of prophecy. People with smart meters and cutting edge thermostats already have the tools in place. All it needs is someone who is bored and has access to the central controls.
If you have been following the moves by Democrats in Virginia to disarm the population you have read about threats to turn off people’s utilities to force compliance. I don’t know if that is from a satire site or real reporting but it can be done overnight, with no danger to the utility employees, to anyone with a smart meter.
When I look at Republicans like Mitt Romney I don’t know if they are the answer but I know that Democrats are the problem.

Actually, we might honestly be better off living in caves. Of course the government would find and regulate them, too.
ReplyDeleteHaving lived in earthquake country I am not sure I would want to live in a cave.
