    Biden Based Air Conditioning Issues Upcoming.....

    https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/bide...se-than-stoves

    I swear I'm not becoming a Republican.....but the above goal of Biden's really chaps my hide. Air conditioning is akin to water in Phoenix - it is life. Or at least very necessary to have any civilized kind of life. I have even gotten by on one meal a day in the past to keep my share of the electric bill current. It is that big a deal.

    Making AC more expensive will not win Biden votes or friends in Arizona. Likely not in Texas nor the South including Georgia which he narrowly carried in 2020. Rob

    Is it less fake if it comes from the EPA? https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/bid...hrough%202028.

    Fox news is there for entertainment. Not a place to get reliable news

    Why deflect Rob’s concern? It is almost as if you don’t want discussion of this latest Biden directive.

    I remember when I was a kid we'd have evening news on the TV which consisted of 15min of local news and 15min of national news, which meant Walter Cronkite in my household. It wasn't ratings driven as ratings didn't matter since the FCC required all stations broadcasting over public airwaves to cover news as a public service.

    With the advent of cable TV that public service mandate went away since cable providers did not broadcast over public airwaves, that and the creation of CNN as a 24hr news operation required a change in how news was presented, it became ratings based and all non-public airwaves based broadcasters switched to content designed to keep viewers in their seats by slanting those opinions according to preferred audience demographics.

    If you think your preferred TV news sources are not working to keep you entertained by providing opinions slanted to your preferences, you don't understand how the business works.

    They don’t f*cking care. Since they think less people will mean less stress on the planet and less pollution, just kill ‘em off. They really do not give a shit about actual people.

    I can’t take heat and humidity. Ac is at 65 when I’m home.

    You don’t have hot flashes! LOL My electric bill also hasn’t gone over $55. So very affordable. Small place.
