Big Brother DEMANDS That You Obey!

Ladies and gentlemen, the war is on, the gloves are off, our sovereignty is under fire, out lives are threatened from without and, at the same time, we have to fight our own government:

• In many venues, you can no longer smoke in your own car when a child is present;
• In many venues, you can no longer smoke in your own home;
• In many venues, you can no longer have your groceries placed in plastic or paper bags;
• In some venues, children cannot play games or run on the playground;
• In some venues, there are additional taxes on sweet or fattening foods;
• In some venues, you cannot even smoke in public, in parks, sports facilities, etc;
• In some venues, there are laws regarding the kinds and types of water bowls and the food "pet guardians" may use for animals;
• In some venues, you cannot even possess a handgun despite various state laws allowing same;
• In some venues, you cannot speak or write certain words (Google: California SB 777, which has been signed into law by Gov. Schwarzenegger);
  

And more.

Now, in Fornicalia, the California Energy Commission wants control over the temperature inside your home:

California utilities would control the temperature of new homes and commercial buildings in emergencies with a radio-controlled thermostat, under a proposed state update to building energy efficiency standards.

Customers could not override the thermostats during "emergency events," according to the proposal, part of a 236-page revision to building standards. The document is scheduled to be considered by the California Energy Commission, a state agency, on Jan. 30.

The description does not provide any exception for health or safety concerns. It also does not define what are "emergency events."

And be prepared, folks. This may in fact become law. And if it does so in Fornicalia, what do you suppose will be heading for your state? Particularly following November of 2008?

Can we all say "baaaa," in unison?

P.S.

To my Fornicalia readers: have you seen this in print yet? Made public? Front page? No? I wonder why that might be? But building MORE power plants? More infrastructure for Fornicalia's INCREASING population -- mostly ILLEGAL? Common sense? Oh no; let's freeze people in Winter, boil them in Summer, then let their homes be dark and dangerous with CFL lights containing MERCURY, then CHARGE THEM MORE MONEY to dispose of and clean up broken CFLs.
