Europe has been rocked by soaring energy prices and rather than fixing the issues, leaders are forcing residents to cut back on things that require energy for the “greater good.”
Fears are running rampant in Europe that the crisis is about to get much worse with the winter approaching and Russia threatening to cut off natural gas exports to the E.U. entirely.
As a result, leadership in the region has offered up some… interesting remedies.
While the Netherlands is urging its residents to take shorter showers to “alleviate the pain” of their energy bills, other nation’s leaders are taking a more aggressive approach.
Countries such as Spain and France have implemented strict rules to shut off lights and A/C units in order to mitigate the crisis.
Switzerland is planning on going as far as throwing people in jail for simply turning their thermostats too high. The new regulation would outlaw turning the temperature in their homes above 66 degrees Fahrenheit and could land them 3 years in jail should they do so.
And if you’re thinking something like that could never happen here in the U.S., think again.
A California energy company recently locked the thermostats of 22,000 people in Colorado at 78 degrees Fahrenheit in the interest of “protecting grid capacity.”
With Biden and the Democrats continuing to attack America’s oil and gas industry, and solar proving itself incapable of fully supporting the nation’s power needs, this could be just the start.

The entire “energy crisis” was caused by the woke bimbo’s in charge. They should be held responsible. VIA hanging. Put someone in charge that has a brain, common sense & a spine. Put the COAL burning power plants back on line, fire them up with cheap, efficient, readily available COAL. Problem solved, Tell the the global warming, climate change HOAX pushers to go FUX themselves.
Once I cross my threshold to my home which I pay for and pay taxes on the government is barred from interfering. If you want to control what I use for power, water, etc then the government can pay for them. More and more freedoms are quickly eroding away thanks to Demonrats and their freedom stealing policies!!!!! King Biden and his executive orders should be illegal. Most if not all his lame brain ideas show go through congress!!!!! WORST President EVER!!!!!
