          It’s one party of the country that does it. They run the media and the influence and keep 51% of the people who actually vote on their side and have done for 40 years in a row.

          It’s coming for every country.

            Everyone should be wary of the right but acting like it is an inevitability is ridiculous and more american eceptionalism. It only happener to us because its coming for everyone.

            It happened to america because everyone there allowed it. Fake democracy was always visible, corruption always there, foreign policy. The works. And its no one party, one if far worse and the other is complacent

      In most of this country the meters are dumb and the pricing is fixed 24/7. This means that any solar power that you put into the grid can only be full price. Also the grid is antiquated and cant handle the unpredictable fluctuations.
