But but biden! 😂

4.09/gal for regular at Brookshire’s in Zavalla this evening.

Going back much further, they got away from the bell/domed compressors for quieter, more efficient styles. They increased the RPMs which severely decreased the life span. Then later, like you said, they phased out Freon 22 (and CFCs) due to Ozone depletion.

This… but imo I don’t see him pitching in the league next year

Lmao. I almost said that. Trump will say it too.

Gotta' love the Frenchies. They'll move in as soon as it's safe.

That's a good one right there. I don't care who you are...lol

Again, no hospitals have been closed. This is conjecture and speculation at this time. How the States implement work requirements will have the biggest bearing on who remains on Medicaid. States control who is on Medicaid. My healthcare costs are directly affected because I'm forced to pay for Obamacare if I want medical insurance. Obama has EVERYTHING to do with it. I do agree that no Administration has fixed it yet. Obamacare was enacted in March 2010. I am a male. But, I'm forced to pay for birth control--as is my wife, who is well past child-bearing age--because the ACA plans must include it. My recommendation: Research. Become an educated voter. Or, become like me. Research, decide both sides are going to screw you over anyway, just don't vote, and figure out how best to deal with the crap. Do this while smiling, and maintaining a positive attitude of course. Personally, I'm positive we'll get screwed either way. That's my attitude.

Looking into the history of the cost increases in residential a/c units takes one back to 2016 and the Obama Administration. In 2016, Obama signed on to a Global Greenhouse Gas Treaty that required the phase-out of 410-A refrigerants. This change meant total redesign of all HVAC units to accept the new refrigerant which is considered mildly flammable. It required all new safety regulations, testing, and training as well. The regulation was hanging around while firms redesigned and retrained. Biden implemented the policy ahead of schedule to take effect in January 2025. It would be too late to void the new regulations now as every manufacturer has already changed their designs, training, and cities have updated their required safety codes, etc. We're stuck with it. No more units with the older refrigerants can be sold. Although, current units can be serviced as long as parts remain available. Obviously, prices will increase as part stock diminishes, and--eventually--repair parts will probably cease being manufactured. This is a perfect example of Federal Regulations costing the public major dollars that may never be recouped by the individual. The two Bills discussed in the above post are an attempt to keep the Feds from regulating any more of our home appliances by fiat.

LOL deport him

Obama has nothing to do with it. Trump has promised to fix and make health care affordable. Your expense is because this administration lead us to believe that Trump had a better plan. Remember “The Great Healthcare Plan” MAGA Mike and the current administration is why health care has risen. I know but, but Biden. Republicans control the House, Senate, and the White House. Why-would you be taken birth controls? I took you for a male, my sincere apologies. [Hidden Content]

I'd have to check the status of these Bills. Chances are--with all the other fighting--they're still sitting around somewhere. (EDIT: Congressional Record shows both Bills discussed have passed the House. It doesn't say where they're at in the Senate.) [Hidden Content]

Without Christ we are nothing.

Not sure where Zeldin sits on this issue. I know EPA has rolled back quite a bit. They did save many of our other appliances. Especially gas appliances. I'm not sure why they are forcing us to use a refrigerant that's a known flammable. Doesn't make much sense to me. But, not much in government regulations ever does...

Trumps been in office over a year. You mean his administration with the trifecta couldn’t address this issue?

Astros should have released immediately after the bitch move he pulled last year. His days might be numbered.

You can thank Biden and the Greenies for the A/C price increase. [Hidden Content]

Gas station owners ultimately set the gas prices! Plus there are other factors that contribute to the prices also like taxes.

Just trying to post some positives, but when people want to live in the negative, everything is useless. A/C systems have always been ridiculously overpriced and are designed to last 5 years.

Glad this pos is gone from Houston!! Still showing how big of a jerk he is.
