@SteelandSouls Well, not really. We control the feds, we can’t control the Saudis. Someone else won’t hold the power.
@Agent Smith I like that segment to. watching now
We control the feds...really now? You're going to tell me that with a straight face?
@grant goodness. A lot.
We vote....that's about it
gtfo with that shit - lol
nazi
That is the gayest cast I have ever seen
@SteelandSouls voting gives us our say. We can’t do anything about the Saudis
That's all well and good but when you look at cases like McCaskill and the Federal Reserve, and the unaccountable bureaus, and the lack of term limits, and government spending, what part of that is our say? Then you expect us to have say over what would essentially be a major power source of the country?
That reminds me I see Discord made some TOS changes, and I apparently need to opt out of something. Have you guys already done this?
@SteelandSouls I would rather try changing the US with my legal ability than trying to change Saudi Arabia with my not legal ability.
@SteelandSouls plus, you can buy an electric vehicle and charge it with solar panels you put on your property and nobody can stop you.
@grant no, I can’t remember doing that
@Salacious Swanky Cat wanna bet? re: solar panels
@Agent Smith I’m not saying it would be easy or cheap, I’m saying you can do it.
same with rainwater tanks
@Agent Smith well, again with rainwater. It’s possible, but that doesn’t mean it’s cheap.
going off-grid has gotten people in trouble the power company cuz they expect you pay cuz their power lines go past your house - I think it was a case in florida
Wouldn't it be easier to stall for a decade when solar is cheap and plentiful?
@Agent Smith there’s a difference between grid tied and off grid. I’d have to see why that case may have happened.
If you collect rainwater, will the EPA try to regulate under the clean water and air act? 🤔
also in some places, you don't have the water rights to catch your own rain
WHAT?
Lol
@grant actually no. The epa doesn’t regulate residential well water.
A lot of states actually disallow the collection of rainwater
Are there rules against the collection of air too?🤪
Apparently Nestle once tried to obtain the sole rights of selling water
@SteelandSouls those are states. The feds don’t prevent it.
#License2Breathe
some libtards are trying to make that case for paying to have clean air
I've heard that if a puddle forms on your property some government entity (maybe the EPA) can claim its a wetland. Does anyone know if that's true?
watermelon environmentalists - green on the outside, red on the inside
Problem with that exception is that these same state who you are trying to ween off of oil to move to electric to include solar panels, are dealing with laws like this that pose the same risk as farming your own energy.
@grant depends on where you live. Some states define state waters differently. The states that disallow rainwater collection are typically in the West.
@Agent Smith several are and it drives me crazy.
@SteelandSouls there are zero federal laws that prevent people from going off grid and there are no state laws against it. However, municipal laws are questionable. If you live in a municipal co-op you may be prevented.
An example of municipal laws raising an issue.
@SteelandSouls that is in my state. Holy crap. I actually know people living off the grid in my state. It seems like the problem for this guy wasn’t explicitly going off the grid with electricity. He violated building codes and stuff like that. I don’t know if Huntsville forces people to tie into the sewer/water system. If he is in the TVA service area, they can’t prevent him from going off grid with power.
