(Via Endiana). Earlier this year I wrote about state legislators in California wanting to control your home thermostat to ensure the end of rolling blackouts. Today, you get a glimpse inside what it’s like to live in a country where thermostats are controlled by the government. This piece from the Moscow Times discusses at length what people do to stay warm when it’s cold outside and while they wait for their government to turn on the heat. During an early cold spell in Moscow, residents in city-controlled dwellings are spending lots of time in a hot bath because the local government won’t turn on the heat until more than five consecutive days of eight degrees or less Celsius.

A social and fiscal conservative, I scour the news for information that disputes the current man-made global warming indoctrination that takes place around the world. I take a rather sarcastic approach to reporting on the nonsense being spewed by the talking heads in the media and the governments around the world.
