From water heaters to pick-up trucks, from gas stoves to light bulbs, there seems to be a strange similarity in how all these “money-saving” changes that leftists and liberal Democrats are forcing on the rest of us always cost more. As the left will tell you, choices are only acceptable when it comes to sexual preferences, abortion, and gender. In everything else, the government knows what’s best for you. It is, after all, a free country.
