Joe Biden Accomplishment Thread

Anyone giving that crappy of an answer in an ECON 101 class would likely not be happy with their test score.

Next few days should be interesting in Germany...NordStream I is being taken offline for at least three days for 'maintenance.'

Call me a cynic, but I won't be surprised if they report problems bringing it back online as long as some manner of sanction is still in place...

I'm reposting my old electric bill and post from 2017 - before any of this stuff was going on and when oil and gas were freely flowing in from Russia. It was obscenely expensive then. I can't even imagine what it's going to be this winter. It's going to be horrific.

Mr. Deez said:
I'm going to give you all a peek into the green energy agenda. I just got my electricity reconciliation bill for the year, and since there is a large American presence in this area, I can get my bill in English.

As I've indicated, I am a climate change agnostic. I don't know what the truth is, so I don't tell people to deny or accept climate change. However, I DO believe that people need to know what the consequences of adopting the climate change alarmists' agenda are. Germany has adopted them, and these are the consequences. Before you embrace that agenda, take a very, very good look. For point of reference 1 Euro is approximately $1.22.

As you can see, I paid €.21420 per kilowatt hour. That's about $0.256883. (That's almost triple what my tenants in Round Rock are paying.) And if you look at the bill, about 2/3 of the bill isn't even for energy. It's fees and taxes. The biggest - €581.84 for the EEG. The EEG is nothing more than politically correct ******** to promote green energy. That's right. I pay over €48 (almost $60) per month to promote green energy.

Now, you might look at that bill and think it's not so bad. It only comes out to about $193 per month, and I have a big house. It's about 3,500 square feet. However, keep in mind a few things. First, my house has no central AC and only one window unit in my bedroom that gets used less than ten days per year. Second, I have a geothermal heating system, so electricity isn't heating my house either. This is just to run the appliances, lights, and electronics in the house, most of which are high-efficiency devices that were pretty expensive to purchase. If a middle class or even upper middle class family in Texas had to deal with these kinds of energy costs, it would be a crushing blow to their budget. And a poor or lower middle class family could never afford it. And the elderly? It literally would kill them in the summertime.

If you buy into the alarmists' theories and think the world is coming to an end, by all means, go with this. No amount of money is too much to avoid Armageddon. However, Al Gore and his people have gotten plenty wrong in their projections. Slow down and really think before you jump into this.

Tell your Mom she isn't wrong.
HIC was being way too generous in asking now.
Maybe he had taken a LONG nap in the cock pit and was groggy.
