Boy, that power grind in TX they refused to connect to the national grid because they didn't like all those regulations and that is wholly owned by a private corporation is operating swimmingly this week!
Good thing those those nanny state experts didn't force them to adequately maintain that grid! And it's definitely great that they're unable to import power from, say, Florida right now!
Texas grid fails to weatherize, repeats mistake feds cited 10 years ago
Libertarian paradise!
“No one owes you [or] your family anything,” Tim Boyd, previously mayor of Colorado City, Texas wrote Tuesday in a Facebook post. “I’m sick and tired of people looking for a damn handout!”
Yeah, fuck you and your family! Bootstraps motherfucker, have you heard of them!?!?!?!
The Texas power grid failed mostly due to natural gas. Republicans are blaming wind turbines.
Pass that buck like a true Patriot!

That story is so damned silly, no one should really respond to it. But - anyone with a pocket knife of any kind can open a can of baked beans. It's hard to believe that any prepper doesn't have an official K-rats can opener, but let's just say it's true. Survival knife, folding knive, tactical knive, utility knife, a moderately sturdy steak knife - damned near any knife will open a can. If you can't figure it out, you deserve to go hungry. No, I don't mind that you cut your fingers a couple times while figuring it out.
