⁠I like to use this as an example. My grandparents owned an Amana freezer for their entire 65 year marriage. It only stopped running when the power went out. It never needed one repair during that time. The thing was a tank. It wasn’t HE of course, but it had very stout insulation. So that less efficient compressor didn’t have to actually work hard to keep the temp low. Now compare that to todays high efficiency appliances. You would go through about 5 to 6 for their average lifespan now during the same 65 years. There are most likely repairs that will be needed during that time too. The high efficiency might save some money in energy bills, but overall they would have paid a lot more during that time if they needed to switch to high efficiency models. High efficiency doesn’t mean saving money overall. However it does mean more complexity and usually less reliability.

I had my AC system serviced last year; the tech who came out was the same fellow who always handles it (and he always does a bang up job); he told me that it wouldn't become apparent until '25, but that this administration had passed legislation that would effectively sunset all existing AC equipment by designating a new (green) coolant which would not function with existing equipment (plus the old coolant will be phased out quickly); this will result in a very large number of consumers having to purchase all new heating and AC systems in order to stay operational. Anyone care to guess what that might cost per household? It will likely run into the thousands of dollars, and everyone will want theirs installed at the same time...monstrous. Not a word in the MSM about it, though...

I can attest with certainty to what many of the Professional Service Techs are saying here, and that is: 1) This woman does NOT know what she's talking about, and 2) Some of the most EXPENSIVE items you'll ever own are the ones classed as "High Efficiency", whether it be your Clothes Washer, to your Refrigerator, to the Car you drive! Investing in a "High Efficiency" clothes washer that "Uses 70% Less Water", means absolutely NOTHING when you're having to change out a $300 CIRCUIT BOARD (and/or other "Cheap Chinese Crap" made parts!) every 6 to 24 months! That "High Efficiency Refrigerator" that uses so much less electricity than your parents & grandparents units did?? - - Well, its true, it does use less electricity, BUT when you're faced with needing a NEW COMPRESSOR 2-3 years from now, and the Service Tech tells you (in all honesty) "It not worth the $600 to $1000 that I'm going to have to charge you to install another (Crap, "Hi-Efficiency") compressor, so you might as well go buy another (Crap, "Hi-Efficiency") Refrigerator," while you remember that your parents and grandparents' units ran for 20 YEARS OR MORE without so much as a "hiccup", well, you do the math!! Driving that "High-Tech" & "Fuel Efficient" GDI (Gasoline, Direct Injection) Engine? Yeah, just wait until you get the bill at 40k-60k miles for having to have your valves "Walnut Bead-Blasted" in order to get all of the massive carbon buildup off of them, that's choking your engine or causing you to fail SMOG! Enjoying that "extra" 2-4 MPG that you're getting in your car with its new, "Hi-Tech" Transmission? - - Well, when your transmission FAILS just out of warranty (IF it makes it that far!) and you have to pay 6k-10k for a complete rebuild (using the same CRAP PARTS), you can "thank" the "experts" that forced the automakers to put feather-weight light parts (or plastic!!) into that tranny, in order to "Reduce the Weight", in order to meet the Government's "CAFE" fuel mandates. The ONLY thing that government does "well" is to MAKE LIFE MORE EXPENSIVE and BURDENSOME for the common man, as they put one INCOMPETENT boob after another into positions of authority and "expertise"!!

I have been repairing home appliances for over 45yrs now, and I tell everyone that any "savings" that exists will get wiped out by a factor of at least 4 on the first repair that they need because they break down before 10yrs . In the past, I used to repair most home appliances when they reached 11-14 yrs, some like the old Maytags are still running after 40 yrs. Now I am seeing unrepairable breakdowns in as little as 3-5 yrs. The cost of parts and labor will exceed the value of the appliance. Plus ,the more "energy efficient" , the more they cost to replace. Compare the energy labels on the old model vs the new and the "savings" is eaten up by increased repair costs and also the more we save on utilitys, the faster the utility companies "raise" their rates. These people are so "educated" they just become stupid. Basic commom sense and critical thinking simply does not exist anymore.

Gotta love it when they get caught and try to lie about not having done any wrong doing. You can bet they won’t give up anything that makes life more comfortable for themselves

I worked for a tier one supplier in the automotive industry. The government, especially the EPA, would demand an increase in MPG and tell the public that they would save money by not buying so much gasoline. But the increased cost in development and manufacture of components and cars would far exceed the gas savings. And at the same time the DOT was demanding improved crash protection which increased vehicle weight which was counter-productive to increased fuel mileage. The people who end up in charge of various departments in government have never worked in those industries and haven't a clue about what it takes to meet their grand ideas.

If it costs about $200 more takes a lot of time to use 200 bucks worth of electricity I'm a single ceiling fan. SHE'S DELUSIONAL

I believe this is the same person that was trying to show how well the electric vehicles work and couldn't find a charging station, sent someone out looking for one and because she is more important than the common people tried having one of her cronies save a spot for her blocking other people from using that charger and the police were called
