your small government wet dream, TugCons. No interstate connection keeps that Federal leviathan out of the picture.

So they have cold weather every decade or so and nobody winterizes. So what? Freezing to death in the dark is a small price to pay for . . . whatever the fuck it is you ladies fantasize about.

    People freeze to death in larger government, enriched(?), areas as well. Hope that helps.

    So does that make the Flint water system the big government’s wet dream?

    Crickets...

    Solid effort though Dazzler. You almost had a coherent argument. Nice job!

    Desperate to stay warm, hundreds have been taken to hospitals with carbon monoxide poisoning, sometimes caused by bringing a grill inside or keeping a car running in a garage

    Let's all freak out over Darwinism.

    You can't legislate out the stupid.

    Imagine living a life where you sit at home or in a tent, waiting for orders from your government before engaging in your own basic survival needs.

    Sounds like a typical week in any rural area with cold weather where everything's running and everyone's working as usual. How do they do it! Oh yeah hydro power and fossil fuels along with wood and people that actually know a thing or two about life.

    So places where they winterize their infrastructure, in other words.

    Is your house bullet proof Dazzler? The weather Texas is experiencing now is freakish and unprecedented. Is there some expectation that we should all insure against unprecedented events?

    The major problem is that the wind turbines are frozen. When the federal government (both dems and rinos) decide to subsidize wind to the tune of $25 a megawatt hour you get lots of non-economical wind turbines that should never have been built. Hell, Buffet is one of the biggest owners of wind turbines in the US. He just looks at cash flow and lobbies the sh*t out of the US Congress to keep the grift going. Conservatives object to this. Leftards think wind turbines are god's gift to the earth. In spite of this temporary fiasco, Texas's energy situation is much better than in Cali. I'll take Texas for the win even though they had a couple of turnovers.

    Not unprecedented and Texas has been advised to winterize after each similar event.

    Devastating earthquakes don't happen every year either. No point in preparing.

    What a steaming pile.

    Frozen wind turbines are not remotely "the major problem" in Texas right now. And that's not to ignore that they can be winterized too.
