I'm not a fan of this one...
Don't know why you'd target ceiling fans specifically as they are much more efficient than pedestal fans. Also a good choice before escalating to air-conditioning.
The title of this post is misleading. Its a propsal to ban inefficient ceiling fans. Its not much different than when the EPA put emissions limits on wood stoves. That put a lot of small garage-based stove makers out-of biz, sending new business to the big manufacturers.
This is really an attack on small business, and more disgusting government taxation. You can be sure that fan makers will have to pay a fee to be "certified". They claim that it will save people money in reduced power consumption. No, it will cost more, because fans will become more expensive to purchase.
I think they are now officially in panic mode. Someone said that, at all costs, they must stop the shit hitting the fan and this was their best idea!
Apologies for all the Daily Mail links; but, it’s like my digital National Enquirer — and the comments (some are undoubtedly bots) help me gauge who is awake. Since Trump’s arrest, there’s been an uptick of ridiculous articles of govt overreach that are surely designed to wake people up. (Or, so I hope!).
I just can’t believe people could be so nuts , this can’t be true can it ? And then the rediculous republicans saying No because , ,, put manufacturers out of business ,, really ? What about the people roasting in their homes ,, it’s hard for me to believe these people can say this stuff with straight faces .
I believe you are right about the articles, they are designed to wake up the public.
A fan is a low cost, low energy consumption alternative to air conditioners. So everybody go out and slap in window units. Oh wait, they'll ban them too.
We need to ban them.
How about we just ban the Deep State?
Ceiling fans, light bulbs, toilet tanks, there is nothing so minor they will not get their hands on to make us miserable.
IF there is an alternative that is better and cheaper, ppl WILL buy it! If you have to FORCE it, . . .
Once they realize that we can put solar panels on our roof, and go off grid, that's when they'll ban solar panels.
We have an off grid home in NH. It nice to not see an electric bill.
Dems hate it when people are independent.
Nah...screw that.
I'd put money on this bitch trying to come up with ideas sitting on the couch in her air conditioned mansion and she looked up st the dust covered blades and was struck by a "moment of genius".
If it's not clear, senate and congressional leaders raise money. They then break off the bitches below them and those bitches have to come up with ways to spend it. This is one of the ways this bitch wants to spend it.
Ban:
Etc ...
This is an awesome idea! Estimated to save households about $39 over the fan's lifespan at a cost of around $10. Whoever said governments waste money? How about I pay them $10 to leave me alone.
BTW, Jennifer Granholm may have been governor of Michigan, but she was born in Canada.
Well, I should’ve wrote Thanx a lot Canada!
F$ck green. Lets fling some brown at them.
Oh ffs. Get out of my bedroom democrats!!!!
America, expectations: cowboys and freedom
America, reality: ceiling fans are racist and stuff.
To label these people as communists is not appropriate. I don't think even communists are this bad.
