German Energy Crisis: Economics Minister Tells Citizens To Shower Less, Colder…”Gas Bills To Triple”!

Germany’s Energiewende is unraveling faster than anyone could have expected

Economics Minister Robert Habeck (Greens) says he is now taking less showers and advises citizens to do the same – in order to fight Putin (and of course because there’s an extreme shortage of gas and no one knows how the country will be kept warm this coming winter)!

Energy is running out in Germany

With the current energy price explosion and acute supply shortages, German politicians are not lacking when it comes to silly ideas. In an interview with Spiegel, German economics minister urged citizens to save energy, and gave unusual tips from his own everyday life. “I take a quick shower,” the Green politician told Spiegel. He said he had never been under the shower for long. “But I have shortened my shower time once again.”

The real reason: Germany’s energy policy debacle

As Germany’s “Energiewende” falters, and energy shortages loom, in part because the country has failed to fill its natural storage facilities and is decommissioning all its coal and nuclear power plants, Minister Habeck had to activate the alert level 2 from the emergency plan gas. “Gas is a scarce commodity,” he told Spiegel.

Shouldn't have shut down all those nuclear power plants you had.  Stupid Germans.

And Trump told them they were vulnerable to the Russians on natural gas, and Merkel and her entourage tried to mock him.

I don't think you can look more stupid as a leader of a first world country by bragging about being the grasshopper instead of the ant.

I bet the French are having a good laugh as they export their nuclear generated electricity to Germany at nice high rates.

[LMAO]

Another glaring example of progressivism meeting reality

The problem is it’s average citizens that suffer

I bet the French are having a good laugh as they export their nuclear generated electricity to Germany at nice high rates.

And when the French are the leaders of common sense in Europe, you know things are pretty screwed up.
