* upper middle - middle - lower middle
(Edited to add more info)
BTW the Government isnt doing this for spite, they listen to the 1% and accept their advice as gold. one of the reason to minimize the middle class is so that the 1%-ers dont have anyone opposing their businesses, using their US$, creating viable alternatives for their products and services, etc.

Also launch a nationwide campaign about energy efficiency and offer rebates for solar installation, cool roofs, radiant barriers and inverter ACs. Most residential consumption is from AC. Also rebates for LED and CFL bulbs and ban incandescents that are 100W or more.
It also suggests that the thermostat be set to 82 degrees Fahrenheit when sleeping and 85 degrees Fahrenheit when out of the house for maximum savings -- recommendations that were met with scorn and disbelief on social media.
If setting your thermostat to somewhere in the 80s sounds too warm, then a good rule of thumb to follow is to turn your thermostat up 7 to 10 degrees from your normal setting for eight hours a day, so you can save up to 10% a year.

They will complain about not getting costumes and paying scalper prices for fetes, but continue as normal, taking abuse from a government that they voted for.pugboy wrote:Carnival coming soon, nobody studying costume prices

Red mis government supporter. How dare you go against the yellow mess opposition and their chief.dogg wrote:Yeah, I'm probably older than you.
I dislike the PNM generally and despise some of their elected and selected members in the hierarchy.
But I'm generally a Rowley supporter and appreciate some of the decisions he's taken. Do you think Kamla would have had the cajones to shut down Petrotrin? To seek to personally renegotiate contracts with energy giants who were not obligated to pay anything to the treasury? No, she would play to the masses and go the appeasement route as she's always done.
The UNC in this iteration is a sunk ship. There's no one there with mass appeal. Their attempt at populism is idiotic and will fool only their blind supporters.
I belong to the 10% of the population who are not red or yellow till we dead and will actually vote on issues. Bring me a UNC with serious people and I'll look again.death365 wrote:Yeah boy yuh keep think like that ... pnm forever!!!!

redmanjp wrote:^ I'm betting you love AC?
One tip is to use a fan in conjunction with AC, put the fan facing you and increase AC temp. The wind chill effect of the fan will keep you just as cool at a higher AC temp.
And don't have AC running in an unoccupied room unless you turn up the temp to perhaps 28C.
