All companies should switch to my nearly year old suggestion that they take out all of their water heaters, and use in-line, on-demand (HWOD)systems. The way to save energy is that they USE DC to feed them with (rewire required on existing HWOD systems), and then re-charge the DC banks at night, when the power is cheaper and demand lower. That alone would reduce daily, daylight hours demand by quite a few percentage points. Even homeowners could switch to that for many of the HW taps, and still use tanks for showers and such (same for businesses on the showers).

We need to bring oversight BACK, just long enough to skim the greedy bastards from the civil world. One of these days, all the dopey, claim to be adult fucks in this world will realize that unless you cull the chaff, you are going to contaminate the cereal.

Social Security, the welfare state (LBJ cleaned up after him), a depression a decade longer than it needed to be, rampant violation of the Constitution. Little stuff like that. > When he fined the military contractors for gouging practices during >WWII?

You need constant supervision, by men in white coats, yes. > One of these days, all the dopey, claim to be adult fucks in this world >will realize that unless you cull the chaff, you are going to contaminate >the cereal. AlwaysWrong, is *ALWAYS* wrong, but nothing new here.
