Always some new madness brewing in the monkey island, huh.
"never shall be slaves"... Shit like this is the reason sometimes I freeze in my step, dumbstruck, pondering how a place like england actually exists. Or if it even does. With a newsfeed like this who needs drugs?

Of course, it they reduced the population of this tiny island and stopped shipping in more, there wouldn't BE as much demand on electricity. But that's the easy option.

I'm alluding to everything, and smart-fridges are the very least of it.

It isn't about saving electricity, or lowering demand. This is all about optimizing the profits, plain and simple! They will cut the populace off, without compensation, to avoid paying out to commercial venues or from firing up backups. If the population becomes too thrifty with their energy consumption, they automatically adjust the consumption to increase demand! This is all about the money. You will consume what we tell you! |

This type of proposal is vice-like. The government-mismanaged (redundant) 'National Grid' will logically view this capability as the 'new normal.' It's a mandatory, unnecessary, government-facilitated blackout that keeps the lights and TV on. The UK is an oil and coal producer, for Christ's sake. Stupid government faux-environmental laws prevent functional capacity from being supplied, while laughably ridiculous schemes like 'wind power' are mandated.
I really hate the people who push shit like this. It's been talked about in the US. Jew Bloomberg's buddy, Bill Gates, is big on the 'smart house' garbage, as are some of the utilities. As with the 'Smart car' deathtrap, only a fucking fool would buy one. To Hell with them. Last edited by Leonard Rouse; April 28th, 2013 at 09:04 AM. |

Exactly. Our much-trumpeted freedom of speech ends where someone else's ears or eyes get offended and they are always frantically hunting for something to be offended by. No doubt just asking the question has offended someone, somewhere.

Open borders and movement of migrant stock. Personal energy supplies for the moved and existing stocks will become a (controlled) luxury, not a right. Except for the highest castes of course.

If Scotland votes for independence all the Nuclear power stations will be closed. No doubt we will be cut off from the national grid, so power cuts - some lasting for days could be a regular occurrence

Surely they would save more electricity if they shut off all the "one-eyed jews" in the corner of the living rooms during lean times? No wasted food from shutting off the T.V. Shutting down the TV's is not mentioned...I wonder why?

You know other than asking for price rises every two minutes because of the 'cost of maintaining the infrastructure' then six months later announce 'record profits'. I doubt very much of that profit got reinvested in power generation instead it goes to line the pockets of investors and the occasional government official.

All Hillary Clinton is referring to is a world governed by scientists and engineers, instead of businessmen and salespeople.
Civilization is doomed and they know it. This is their futile attempt to slow down the inevitable. Endless growth or "sustainable" growth is unsustainable because both are still GROWTH. |

Alternatively, they could just switch off everyone's freezer for 10 minutes, and save the cost of starting and stopping generators, maybe even save the cost of building some of them. Quote:

Now here's Hillary's Big Boss in the White House mentioning the 'tikkun' thing that you clam is not of her thinking. So what's her main man jive talking about then? Obama at the Hanukkah celebration in 2011. Listen @2:50 where Obama says the following: Let's think about those who are away from home including members of our military who guard our freedoms around the world. Let's extend a hand to those who are in need and allow the values of tikkun olam to guide our work this holiday season.... |
