Biden to ban gas stoves (Page 1/13)

Yeah, an octogenarian with dementia now wants to ban gas stoves.

How many people will loose their jobs and who will benefit from this egregious government overreach.

Unbelievable.

Got a link to that? Hadn't heard that one.
Edited: Never mind, found it on my own.

"[The] Inflation Reduction Act includes a rebate of up to $840 for an electric stove or other electric appliances, and up to an $500 to help cover the costs of converting to electric from gas."

So, now when some nut, criminal or terrorist knocks out a substation (however), entire neighborhoods, cities or if it's the right place, regions are cut off in all electric homes.

Yeah, that sounds like a great idea............
Don't even suggest it can't happen!!

"Will the [gas-fired kitchen range] With Electronic Ignition Work During [an electrical power] Failure?"

Very brief report.

Yes, it does. You just use a match.

I know from personal experience from during the hurricane.

How many ways are there to cook a steak? Or a hamburger?

It would not be a stretch to imagine that the days of the backyard cookout are numbered. A 4th of July cookout is so MAGA anyway. Probably started by white supremacist slave owners.

Besides, who will be able to afford beef, in the future feudal America?

Microwaved, soy and mealworm stew with tofu dumplins! Mmm, Mmm, good!

During my earliest years, in my very first assignment as a Former Fetus, I was raised and nurtured in a second story flat and than a small suburban home with gas-fired kitchen ranges and ovens.

What more proof do you need?

According to news that I just observed, the Biden administration is backing off this to a certain point, apparently 40%+ of the nation has provided negative feedback.
Not sure why that makes a difference, that 40%+ must be mostly Democrats.

There is a good reason why an advertising slogan became a popular idiom for doing it right.
