The stupidity is having an all-electric home. Electricity is terrible to heat with.
My dad lived out in the country. There was no natural gas to be had. Propane, like having your own tank and taking delivery, wasn't cheap. So, he had a nice wood-burning fireplace that he ran all day.
At night they used that magical invention called a heating blanket.
We watched a video earlier today where a guy puts a wick in a can of crisco, puts that in a terra cotta saucer, puts 3 clay feet on the saucer rim, and then stacked progressively smaller terra cotta pots upside down until it came to a point at the top. It looked like a traffic cone. It got to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. If you had one of those, minus rambunctious kids and pets, you’d be set.
Electricity isn't stupid or terrible if you (a) live in a country where the govt isn't feverishly working to destroy everything about your way of life and (b) have a home over 2000 sq ft. You can't heat a decent-sized house with high ceilings using a wood stove. What are you going to do, get up every hour throughout the night to stoke the fire?

A magical wood-burning heating blanket, we assume? LOL we use an electric blanket instead.
I hated dealing with propane at my previous address. We love our spacious all-electric home, 1000 sq ft smaller yet still way too big for a wood stove to handle.
Is electricity for everyone? Clearly not. Does that mean it's stupid? Not for everyone, it isn't.
You must be smarter than anyone else. A rank of wood is 90-120 bucks if you dont own a forest electric heat Is cheaper than all.other forms of heating. I own 2 fully electric homes.
Many trees are cut down in the summer. Just ask for some and people are more than happy to give it away for free. I have pulled my car over many times and loaded up at the most unexpected times. And it’s fun!
Probably correct on both counts, Fren. The stupidity is off the charts.

This is absolutely 100% wrong.
