re: Several States Considering Bans on New Homes Featuring Gas Appliances

“Natural gas is our cleanest fossil [fuel] and it is responsible for the U.S. reducing carbon dioxide emissions more than other country, largely because we have centuries of the stuff.” said Dan Kish a senior fellow at the Institute for Energy Research. “God blessed North America with enormous energy wealth, and our only impediment is power-hungry politicians who want to make energy more expensive and more foreign, while bossing Americans around by telling them how to heat their homes and what kind of car they can drive.”

I really hope they don’t move to Louisiana and try to bring their politics with them

and this is how the policy making process works in America now.

An industry creates a trade association which forms a Pac to buy off politicians and funds a Think Tank to create "research" and "science" that favors the industry.

The Think Tank pushes some bullshite like gas appliances are killing the earth and humans. The bought off politicians then push it into the ecosystem. MSNBC, FACEBOOK and all the other dutiful echo chamber entities take the cue and repeat it verbatim and allow it spread on their platform.

Then local and state level politicians take the lead in order to up their PROGRESSIVE bonafides, increase their star and become a member of the political class that gets to be bought off.

Induction is better, but I fix them and man I've seen induction ranges needing $1000 repairs.

Gas is cheap. Simple and very easy to regulate desired temperature.
