Seems rules for thee but not for me is his platform? Yup there is a lot of hypocrisy in these green advocates (for someone else). He has outed himself several times but his bandwagon must have several spare wheels because he just keeps rolling along. add: the heat pump conversation, The air...

there's a reason why they are "poor third world countries".....they "don't do it"

That last line rings true and the "divide and conquer" supports a global play against the USA. Some might conclude that even our supposed allies are in on it? Certainly the socialist extremity has much of it's roots in Europe.... the internet being the "lazy" venue, perfect for "catching the...

We haven't sunk our ship yet (USA) So goes the demands, so we can become them and buy in to the environmental hysteria that has hijacked economies in the western world. Not to mention the ability to defend themselves if a country like China or Russia chooses to intervene. However this guy or...

The mainstream "news" as well...information has been hijacked and the truth suppressed.(lying by omission is probably the most common, and in turn, the most nefarious) Who feeds the info?...probably the most powerful sponsors, using any available platform or site to support their agenda and...

sounds like a threat. where did you get this copy and paste? notes from the virtue signalling World Economic Forum? We're always the odd one out, that's what makes us the best nation in the world. China?, Now there's some real genuine commitment.....a government that unleashed a bio weapon on...

info today: a thousand lemon-aid stands many selling the same thing (often an ideology represented as a product) Once you introduce politics in the mix not only does the science get skewed, the cost and logistics gets the "shell game" Fear is the headline.. it works on people's hearts and...

As said by Hay-Dude, battery powered equipment has a place in most people's tool shed...I have some and most work fine. But the mandates are for totalitarian governments. Freedom of choice is a staple of a free society....You want electric fine but don't remove my choice of what works best for...

I suppose people adapt and learn a new curve..but I'm an old guy who doesn't have the time or money to reinvent myself when the old way costs less and works just fine the problem; they,(the bureaucratic rule makers and Congress pundits), like the energizer bunny, keep going and going and...

fair enough...

I beat that by one year when I bought my new Kioti tractor. ( it was tier four but not the final version) no reburner..... they had one 2012 clutch model left on the lot...Everyone wants hydro stat nowadays...but i wanted the clutch cause none of my land is flat. It was both research and a bit...

well here is the rub....natural diesel vs additive diesel B5 ultra and others which claim to replace the natural lubricant sulfur...hydro technology claims to replace sulfurs natural lubricant. ....?????? from several studies around the world with different wording but essentially the same...

Oregon regulations has squeezed supply issues designed to force people into higher % bio- diesel..Right now most pumps are B20 and the B5 mix has almost disappeared ...the subsidies for the ethanol fuel mix has been tripled by the last admin.(the so-called infrastructure bill) Basically...

To answer that I would only be able to offer a "storied" version of West Coast experience only..figured it would be too long and not that interesting, so I will try to condense: The East Coast is likely different I live in a pretty remote/secluded area and in reality out of touch with...
