Is there any joy in this life this sour, bitter, dementia-riddled old man and the harpies enabling him cannot try to rip from your fingers? Is there any comfort in your solidly middle class life that they will not try to deprive you of, or, if unsuccessful, at least regulate into non functionality and obsolescence-by-design?

The short answer and only answer is “No.”

Our shared misery makes him happy.

Gas stoves, the very power in your home, your car, air-conditioner, washing machine and dishwasher.

And now, they’re eyeing probably the last target left in the house – that whirling guillotine of guilt. Those blameworthy blades of bounty and selfish indulgence:

THE CEILING FAN

From day one it was clear that @POTUS was not on the side of America’s small businesses.

Even ceiling fans aren’t safe from his bureaucratic overreach. https://t.co/i3XJObhgOx pic.twitter.com/DtppsWPAyz

Congress had to literally pass legislation to let these freaking fascist idiots know they were serious about not letting the Energy Department and EPA ban gas stoves…

…so what is going to take to knock this down? At least hold them off until we can boot them out?

A strongly worded letter is the first official option. The Congressional Small Business Committee did so, with a list of questions to be answered by Secretary Jennifer Granholm pertaining to how her department considered the effects (as required by statute) on small business when dreaming up this next round of arbitrary restrictions.

…The House Committee on Small Business writes to inquire about the recent proposed rule change to the energy conservation standards for ceiling fans. This proposed rule would decrease the maximum estimated energy consumption permissible for large diameter and belt driven ceiling fans.1 This rule would require numerous small business fan manufacturers to redesign their products and may put between 10 and 30 percent of small business ceiling fan manufacturers out of business.2 It appears that the Department of Energy (DOE) may not have properly considered small entities during this rulemaking process.

And woo hoo – this group of climate cultists is all about touting the imaginary but never realized “savings” to be gained by lucky consumers through their product tinkering. Their #mathz skills are non-existent and the impact on manufacturers, as you probably guessed, would be a major blow.

BUT WHO CARES?

…The Department of Energy has proposed new rules that would require ceiling fans to be more energy efficient. According to an analysis by the agency, new energy-efficient fans would save households about $39 over the fan’s lifespan.

The rule would cost consumers roughly $86.6 million a year to upgrade their fans, but the agency estimates it would translate to $316.7 million a year in savings: $281.1 million in cheaper operating costs, $54.7 in “monetized climate benefits,” and $67.5 million in health benefits.

When you have to live under these conditions, with everything – even the simplest things – that you enjoy about life under constant assault from a brigade of fascist national nannies, why…it’s almost enough to drive you to drink.

And don’t think POTATUS and his storm troopers aren’t one step ahead of you there, either.

Put down that, Pabst, putz.

Biden administration is out of control! I think they sit around and TRY to think of ways to make us miserable. They want: our freedom, speech, money, cars, fuel, gas stoves, heating and air, ceiling fans, alcohol, and our president Trump! https://t.co/zbpo7KCiIp

Yeah. The administration wants us to be just like CANADA.

I Schlitz you not. and do NOT ask me why we have an ALCOHOL CZAR.

Americans could soon be advised to limit themselves to just two drinks a week, a top health official warned Thursday.

President Biden’s alcohol czar, Dr. George Koob, told the Daily Mail that the USDA could revise its alcohol recommendations to match Canada’s guidelines.

In January, the Great White North began urging residents to limit their alcohol consumption to two drinks per week.

Yeah? Canada? Jeez – wonder why the hell those guys are drinking like sturgeons.

Misery makes Jr. happy, too.

As the Biden administration has actually handed out crack pipes, we know where they stand on this question.

I still have half a bottle of Mondavi left over from debate night, it’s reading 102° on the outside thermometer, the house is at 74°, the ceiling fans are cranking.

And it’s Friday. To the weekend!

Slàinte Mhaith!!!
