Trump will scribble that sharpie on anything you put down if you say it's the greatest piece of legislation ever and he's a genius for coming up with it.

So when the program ends, manufacturers will dig out their early 1990's appliance designs and energy use will sky rocket?

Yes if it will save them 10 cents on an air conditioner.

Do we need a government certification on efficiency? Could not some private entity develop their own certifications to take the place of Energy Star?

Yeah that firm will be owned by GE, Samsung, LG.

Hell even Grok thinks he's suspicious.

There is no conclusive evidence that Donald Trump is a Russian asset in the sense of being a recruited agent or spy. However, the cumulative weight of his financial ties to Russian investors, documented campaign contacts with Russian operatives, and policies that align with Kremlin interests has fueled credible suspicions that he may function as an asset in the broader sense—someone whose actions, wittingly or unwittingly, advance Russia’s agenda. Investigations like Mueller’s and the Senate’s have confirmed troubling connections but stopped short of proving collusion or formal recruitment.

the last few years, pretty consistently since 2019 with a small percentage dip in CEO departures in 2022. It's a continuing story and an interesting one. No one wants to be CEO if they think things are going to shit and they'll be to blame, even if they know they get a golden parachute out of it.

But no, it isn't. It was developed solely to attack Capitalism in order to promote Communism. The people responsible were German "academics" in Frankfurt, who were also working for COMINTERN (or whatever it was being called at the time). Go ahead and look it up. Socialist academics imported to the US in the 1960's.

"History", is a study of the past and how it has affected the present. Critical * Theory is a tool designed by Socialists to criticize everything except Socialism.

No, YOU look it up and post your findings. I'll check back. You've used the words communism and socialism, can you also throw in marxism so my card can get punched? You couldn't even explain any of those philosophies without googling.

Hate to be that guy who sounds like he's supporting Trump, but too many of these DEI programs are racial profiling under another guise.

Can you give any examples of these "DEI programs" that are being unfair that the cheeto is correcting? I thought you didn't like big government and how they meddled with people and told them what to do?
