Don't get me wrong. I'm not different than most. But this is America. It isn't some place where we get together in socialism. We need to join in neighborhoods, and provide our joint diesel powered generators. Or, maybe we each should have our own. Get rid of the grid. Or save it for the poor in the big cities. And get laws changed if government won't allow you to do this. After all, CA Gov Newsom is on the recall list with better than half the signatures needed. We can get the others in government fired by recalling and electing all the legislature if they won't do what we want.
