American here in a state bordering Canada. We get energy and trade with Canada. Our winter is basically over.

Please cut the power for an hour. Make it daily. Increase it to 2 hours. Do it at the most annoying times.

Hospitals and such have backup power systems, so a short outage wouldn’t directly harm anyone. (I’m sure some elderly shut in will coincidentally die of old age and it would get blamed on the outage) But it would get everyone’s attention and mostly be really fucking annoying for some people.

Yes, this is incredibly well known.

BipolarSilence’s brother’s friend definitely said this, trust me.

To me the problem is if we can’t fix something as simple as egg prices, how will we fix something as complicated as housing?

Right to Work means you can have a union job but not join the union. You have the right to”right to work” without being a union member or paying any union dues. Generally it means you get all the benefits without contributing but also unions are usually a lot weaker since so many people opt out, so also the benefits are lesser. Because it is governed by state-level laws, details vary from state to state.

Federal prosecutors have to weigh likelihood of securing a conviction. In this case they determined the likelihood wasn’t high enough. This isn’t because of a lack of evidence but rather whether witnesses (ie his victims) would have been convincing enough to a jury.
