Commentary: The Coming Dark Age, Courtesy of our 21st Century Government

Certain basic functions of everyday life distinguish us from animals. Our use of fire is among them. We cook with it, heat with it, and light the darkness with it. In many ways, fire on the stove is the center of our family life. In days of our ancestors, we even kept wild animals at bay with torches burning hot with the rendered fat of animals. 

Now the United States federal government is coming for our fire. It’s to protect the children, the federal government says, through an unelected bureaucrat who wants to regulate gas cookstoves out of existence.

  3. I think it was Kevin Sorbo that tweeted the reason they want to ban gas stoves, is because they can't turn them off remotely like they can an electric one.

    1. No, all they have to do is shut down the gas pipelines and make it illegal to sell propane. Then what are you going to do?

      Seriously, the Government can do whatever it wants and we have no ability to stop them short of going very kinetic.

    2. I suspect the real reason is so they can get an agreement to allow gas ranges in return for recgonizing their right to regulate indoor air quality in private dwellings. Perhaps in the future mandate air quality sensors in your house with cameras and sound always on "for your protection". Cook a steak and find yourself on the no-fly list.
