Biden Bans Modern Consumer Appliances As UN Appointee Screams "Pay For Our Slaves!"
In yet another jaw dropping public spectacle circus show dubbed the USSA Today, the Biden regime is now lashing out at American consumers for using basic appliances while demanding the United Nations to set up a police state tribunal to punish innocent Americans for "slavery" of African Americans which no longer exists and has not since at least 100 years, a form of financial theft very debatable as to exactly how it would be enforced, and if so highly probable Unconstitutional if not treasonous and seditious.
A pledge by the Biden regime in December 2022 to take “more than 100 actions” to impose significantly tighter "environmental" restrictions on consumer goods is now becoming reality and consumer groups are predicting a future in which Americans pay more for products that do less, while manufacturers warn of shortages and supply chain breakdowns.
“You’re seeing, just in the last few months, new rules from the Biden administration about clothes washers, dishwashers, and other kinds of kitchen appliances, and in every case, you’re talking about a tightening of already very, very tight standards,” O.H. Skinner, executive director of the Alliance for Consumers, told The Epoch Times.
“That will make it so that nearly the majority of the current products on the market don’t meet the standards and have to be redesigned or removed from the market,” Skinner said. “Everyday things that people actually want are going to get more expensive or disappear, and the products that will be available will be more expensive but not better. People are going to wonder why life is worse.”
These actions follow a familiar pattern: rumors of new directives, followed by official denials, followed by draconian diktats. For example, reports that the Consumer Product Safety Commission would ban gas stoves over alleged safety concerns sparked a public outcry in January, which was met with denials by the Commission, together with media ridicule, that any such thing was being contemplated. This was then followed by new environmental standards from the DOE that would ban the manufacturing of 50 percent of the gas stoves available on the market today.
The DOE rules elicited criticism from House Republicans, who in a March 21 letter to Granholm called the regulations “a blatant back door attempt to ban gas appliances enjoyed by millions of Americans.
“Your attempt to ban gas appliances has no basis in law or within your jurisdiction,” GOP representatives charged. “The Department of Energy has enjoyed bipartisan support, your actions to appease the Biden Administration’s radical climate agenda does not reflect well upon the Department.”
While consumer advocates doubt that these new measures will save Americans money, appliance makers say consumers will not be happy with the products that are left to buy.
This is NOT how a free market works at all, this is NOT how capitalism works. America is rapidly becoming a communist country, with the economy being run by the federal government.
