My friends, we have reached peak government inefficiency.

The original poster said his community in Little Switzerland, North Carolina, received these chainsaws from a U.S. Army Chinook helicopter ... and that it has been the only government assistance their community has received.

as long as they keep sending them in as fast as those 60v die that should work fine

Also a supply of Bar and Chain oil is useful too because with out oil it is pretty much useless for any type of chainsaw.

I’m sure the rationale behind that from some motivated college graduate is something that i think i would truly want to listen to

Yes unless you have to deal with it daily. Sometimes it is hard to realize which one is more ignorant....the motivated grad....the brother in law of an elected official.....or the elected officials.

A gas generator can use the same amount of gas to run and charge a chainsaw..

A gas generator AND a gas chainsaw, uses what little gas that area has

Bruh, the last big hurricane in Jax I burned up two chainsaws over two days from all day use.

Nobody got time to charge a toy chainsaw based on the work that needs done there.
