The mayor of Los Angeles told residents to unplug their appliances, shut off their air conditioners, and turn on a fan after 3 p.m.
Look at this…
And they call those of us in flyover country backwards…
All I know is that out here in the sticks, out here in hick country, out here in the hinterlands, my 3,200 square foot home (if you count my finished basement) is as comfortable, cool, and dry as a shopping mall. A 72 perfect degrees, and it has been at least five years since the power’s gone out, and even then it wasn’t longer than an hour.
Who’s the bumpkin now?
There is no better sign you live in a third world country than rationed electricity.
Honestly, if your government is too inept to deliver the basics, and other than water — something else California can’t deliver — there is nothing more basic than electricity, you live in a third world country.
Sorry, you just do.
Want to know what else only happens in third world countries? Being told to shut off or power down your electricity at a certain time each day only happens in third world countries — you know, like the third world country of California.
Why would any American choose to live like this? And in America, that truly is a choice.
You don’t have to live in some sweaty hellhole. Voting for lunatic Democrats is a choice. There’s no shortage of electrical power in this country, but there is in California, because stupid politicians elected by stupid voters put Gaia above curing human misery and refuse to build the necessary infrastructure to deliver the necessary power and water.
I usually hate to see anyone suffer but these fools brought it upon themselves. Not all of them but at least the minimum 51%, maybe more.
ReplyDeleteSure wish they would leave!
ReplyDeleteThank Your Democrats !!! Sanctuary City Hellhole !!! The state
ReplyDeleteReaps what it sews !!!
Don't cry now !!!
This is what they voted for. This isn't anything new. They have been pushing for this outcome for year's. They now have all the people in place. All the people they voted for. They deserve EVERY rotten thing coming their way.
ReplyDeleteI remember one commenter on this blog saying that he hoped us older conservatives would die so "Progress" could be made.
ReplyDeleteI see your "progress" and I don't want any part of it.
California is being run by incompetent loonies and fools and is "progressing" toward total collapse.
Time to drop back to 49 states in America and ship all the liberals / democrats to California
ReplyDeleteCocoo for coocoo puffs
nothing to support this
ReplyDeleteWith a net loss of residents over the past five years, solar power new and rehab construction mandates, huge public alternative power initiatives, etc., how can this be?
ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to get up with Nancy's hairdresser and tell her to turn off Nancy's hairdryer.
ReplyDeleteNext they will move to a Republician State. Where it's run better. Then they can all vote Democrats into office cause they are to dumb to understand how they got there in the first place.
ReplyDeleteAnybody think the mayor has done his part on shutting down, conserving energy and moving that thermostat? I would put a wager on it that he has not...Fg liberals suck!..smh..mho
ReplyDeleteNancy’s ice cream is going to melt everywhere in her industrial fridge. I hope Arnold is making videos on climate crises and propane is racist as he stands in front of a 12 burner industrial gas oven. Ha
ReplyDeleteMost European don't use air conditioning. Only Americans consume the largest amounts of electricity and drive these huge gasoline guzzling pick up trucks and SUV's. Newsflash, only Americans think this is the greatest country. Poor immigrants come to make money because Europe won't let them in without a skill or degree, and wealthy businesses come because Trump has relaxed restrictions to make it easier to maximize their profits. Most Europeans like our paid time off, cleaner air, healthcare and education and no mass shootings. Maybe it's why we live longer.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't reach the temps in Europe it normally does California.
DeleteI understand people complaining about the government out there, but California is an extremely large state people. It's amazing the have got power and water there at all.
But please don't bitch too much, they all might try moving back to the right coast.
Maybe you should move back to Europe.
DeleteAnd by the way, Europe is not just The UK. Pretty sure many many Spaniards and Italians use a/c.
Try Germany. You sound like you'll fit right in.
Europe won't let them in without a skill or degree? That's blatantly dishonest.
DeleteThey got who they voted for and they love Newsom.
ReplyDeleteTheres a true reason why the mississippi river splits the nation from north to south.
ReplyDeleteSorry to those on the west side - east side rules AND we have a gulf stream making the Atlantic Ocean seasonally nice and warm!!!!
Howboutcha Wash St? Oregon? Northern Cali (San Fran)?
Yeah, didn't think so!
Northwest Woodsman: This could be a positive situation. If California is turned into a third world s#!t hole, maybe all of the illegals will return to their homeland. One can only hope. I’m afraid that it will actually only result in an exodus to surrounding states where they will impose their preferred form of violent subculture.
ReplyDeleteYou know california was Mexico before it was BOUGHT by The US. You think on the day they signed the papers way back when, people just left their homeland.
DeleteThe Spanish colonized here 100 YEARS before the English and the Dutch.
Mexicans are spanish speaking natives. That's it. They were Mayan and other tribes before that. You know some places in Mexico don't speak Spanish. They only speak Mayan.
Federal Govt is going to kick State's asses soon after the election !!!!
ReplyDelete1:24 then go back to Europe...
ReplyDeletePlease to the California citizens. Do NOT take this to mean that pleasuring yourself in public is now an accepted practice. If you must, wherever you are, SHUT the door to your "closet". If you must share a booth, use the handicapped facility to permit your mutual fantasy and spare the rest of us from your behavior.
ReplyDeleteThis, like other 3rd world requirements, begins at 3PM daily in spite of how much you might sweat..
1:24
ReplyDeleteYes, we use the most electricity and have the biggest vehicles...because we can!
Why would you voluntarily shut that down?
Stupid..self imposed prison for no reason.
Oh, and don't spew out the global warming crap. No reasoning person believes that crap anymore!
No matter how hard I try, I just can't think Neo-Californian.
ReplyDelete1:07 PM - Nancy has a backup generator that costs definitely more than your pickup truck and maybe your annual rent.
ReplyDeleteDon't tell them to leave. They should stick it out. We do not need their politicians looking for another state to loot! They voted for this let them suffer!
ReplyDeleteState is getting it's Karma for being a Radical Democrat controlled
ReplyDeleteSanctuary, Traitor, state !! Blame ONLY the Democrats , Not Trump !!
Blame Pelosi too & her Dirty bunch of criminals in Congress !!!
Blame the Democrat Governor !!!!
The Hell-Hole state is burning in it's Own Hell !!! Don't Blame Trump !!!
Don't expect ANY help or Bailout $$$$ either , NONE coming !!!!
Well think of all the snail darters, and spotted owls they saved.
ReplyDeleteIf I hadn't gotten drafted back in the day, I would have stayed in California where I was temporarily living at the time. Best year round weather in the country. You have the ocean coast, and the mountains less than a day's drive from anywhere in the state. Some of the most diverse terrain in the country. Pot is legal to obtain from state dispensaries, and there is no shortage of things to do and see. But alas, I requested the Army send me back to my hometown when my time was up. Third world? Don't believe it. Nothing third world about California except overpopulation from all the people that WANT to live in a nice climate with dynamic lifestyle availability. With overpopulation, even first world counties have the same problems as third world and developing countries. Just look at ALL of our densely populated cities and the problems they are experiencing today. Yes, many are looking like third world countries, and not just the ones in California.
ReplyDeleteHas been Third World since the Democrats took over !!!
ReplyDeleteidiots
ReplyDeleteKeep voting for democrats is insanity.
ReplyDeleteThe Traitor state Harbours & provides
ReplyDeleteillegal sanctuary to Third World Illegals
so , thus it is a Third World State !! Walla
It should Not expect ANY Federal $$$ or Help
either , since it Breaks the Law !!!
In case you did not know this but California lands are about 50% Federally managed. Now who is responsible for this management?
ReplyDeleteLets hold those who are responsible,...responsible
It should Not expect ANY Federal $$$ or Help
ReplyDeleteeither , since it Breaks the Law !!!

Don't hold your breath. That just political talk, not any reality in it.
Over 50% of California lands are Federally managed. Now just who is responsible?
