Yes, stupid is as stupid!!!
Sounds like someone is learning a lesson from "The George W. Bush Stupidity Guide". You know, the one that says it isn't George's way or puts money into the pockets of big oil and other big business companies, like haliburton, then there has got to be something wrong with it..... Sounds about right...

Re: Re: Re: We're not here to hurt the small guy...
When you're trying to save energy, the government taxes you. It punishes you when you do something that is right. I have no respect for any level of government. It reminds me of CL&P (Connecticut Light And power): They tell the ratepayer to conserve electricity and they raise their rates. How can you win? the taxpayer and the ratepayer gets screwed either way. It's disgraceful and disgusting between the government and the corporations. They have the power and we don't have any.

You're being sarcastic, right? At least, I hope you are!

Another brilliant Federal stunt. 'What's money to the little guy, he's never seen it? We can lie to him too.' Is there a reason we want to keep our apron strings to the Middle Eastern Oil Mama? This is outrageous.

How ridiculous! It should be the reverse. People seeking alternatives should recieve a kick back of sorts - a tax break, perhaps - but not a friggin fine.

We're not here to hurt the small guy...
or to kick him when he's down. But it's time you got it through your head, mister go-it-on-your-own, citizenship is a team sport. You can't just John Wayne your way through a problem. Disrespecting the law helps the terrorists. or something.
