I truly have to stop asking that question because they
are starting to see this as a challenge!
Last week I saw a YouTube video about a Chinook
helicopter landing at an Inn in a little remote town of Little Switzerland, NC.
They were one of the many towns cut off from the rest of the world after
Hurricane Helene in the Appalachian area of North Carolina.
This town stands at an elevation of 3500 feet making
deliveries of rations that much more difficult. The Chinook pilots were
excellent and were VERY careful about their landing zone.
I must admit I was starting to think that maybe the
government was actually doing something in this horrible situation after 10
days of basically doing nothing other than denying applications for the $750
per family.
I watched as the residents helped the military staff unload
multiple pallets from the aircraft.
What I wasn’t paying attention to however was what
those supplies were. I mean I did see water in bottles and the typical food
stuffs, but didn’t look much past that.
What I have found out since is jaw dropping!!!!
Three pallets of battery powered chainsaws were
delivered to a town with no electricity! Electric restoration may take months
and yet some idiot government bureaucrat decided it would be smart to deliver
battery powered chain saws.
You just can’t make this stuff up.

Sell them on eBay and buy gas ones!!!
As much as I hate this admin in reality this probably isn’t as dumb as it looks, they run as long on a charge as a gas one does, they don’t need oil to mix with gas, and they can be charged with a generator. There are truck loads of generators if fema hasn’t confiscated them. I can cut all but the largest trees with mine. I have cut an 18 inch pine log without a stutter.
It's just one more step, one more hurdle to jump through......I have one too on my property, but the battery charge would take a couple of hours from dead. Does it make sense to run a gas engine that long to charge a battery when the same amount of gasoline would have run a gas powered chainsaw, then refilling the chainsaw with gas on takes a minute and ready for service again? Sounds to me as if you are using Biden logic too!
True. I worked and my Dad worked in Govt. and contract. They have no idea what they are doing. It's mistakes they cover up or it's someone there willing to wait for electricity.
Quick answer, yes they can get dumber and more radical
