gotta being insulting? typical troll, sorry I don't fall for it troll

my point stands, heat pumps are more economical even in cold weather

the more you resort to being abusive, the more evident is is you don't really have a defensible position and you're wrong and deep down you know it but you lack the integrity necessary in order to openly admit it to yourself

i feel sorry for you and all those just like you

There are temperatures below which a heat pump doesn't work at all. No amount of insulation can fix that. Not a lot of people live in places like that, but they do exist.

so much bs, when you have to stretch that much to make your point, you've already lost and you just look wrong

heat pumps don't need to pull heat from the outside air, they can pull heat from mass walls and shallow geothermal all winter long.

it's just engineering

not true at all, geothermal can be used to store and use heat from mass walls and shallow ground loops, basically people use their yards and garages to store heat during the day and use it at night or during the summer and then released in winter months, google shallow geothermal

also google Saskatchewan Conservation House for passive solar development history in cold climates

with R60 and R100 insulation values in building codes, heat pumps are more than adequate, not to mention how they can run off of roof top solar so no grid, EVs can be used as battery walls and not to even mention passive solar

people, we've all been cheated by Big Energy who do everything they can to keep us from being energy self-sufficient

what we have now is just classism, corporatocracy and corruption in action

You don't have to support either of these companies. You have that choice. But you don't want to give up what they are offering you.

We have no choice, this is what a duopoly is, both choices are unacceptable and both options are rip offs

this is the illusion of choice offered by evil upper class people whose only interest is in satiating an insatiable greed, thee people are hopeless addicted to power, they can't give it up and the only way to get more is to steal power from the rest of us

money is power, power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely, the upper class is absolutely evil

the rich and powerful are wrecking everything for everybody

Only primitives believe in imaginary sky friends, people too weak to face up to their own irrelevance.

It seems only fundamentalists have trouble grappling with concepts like externalism, existentialism, metaphysics,multidimensionalism, nihilism and theology. Not only that but to dismiss it all so they can apparently feel superior to those they see as merely superstitious seems suspect.

Just saying.
