They didn’t even think about coming for my gas furnace or water heater, and I said: “What the hell?”Sorry folks, but you’ll take my gas stove from my cold, dead kitchen.

Because:This kind of faux-populist harumphy bullshit could have been (and was) deployed against every consumer-safety regulation of the last century. https://t.co/IqngrKUB4M

In an interview with Bloomberg, a US Consumer Product Safety commissioner said gas stove usage is a "hidden hazard."
"Any option is on the table. Products that can't be made safe can be banned," agency commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. told Bloomberg. The report said the agency plans "to take action" to address the indoor pollution caused by stoves.As the song said, this started a joke because it started the whole world crying:
In a statement to CNN, the CPSC said the agency has not proposed any regulatory action on gas stoves at this time, and any regulatory action would "involve a lengthy process."
"Agency staff plans to start gathering data and perspectives from the public on potential hazards associated with gas stoves, and proposed solutions to those hazards later this year," the commission said in a statement. "Commission staff also continues to work with voluntary standards organizations to examine gas stove emissions and address potential hazards."So, yeah, black helicopters will soon be airlifting your Wolf range through your roof and disposing of it in a third-world garbage tip so we are safe here.
And those rich people who want to continue committing tax fraud:It's worth noting that the centerpiece committee the House GOP has created amounts to an investigation into what the "Deep State" has done to Trump and his friends. https://t.co/VewLoqBZ98

If the phrase "this kind of faux-populist harumphy bullshit," doesn't become the default name of 97% of what appears on FOX, CNN, etc. the internet as an educational entity is useless. It's exactly what I've been forming in the back of my mind for decades.
