Sad news out of Switzerland:
Switzerland is Entertaining the Idea of Jailing Individuals Who Heat their Rooms Above 66℉ in Case the Country Has to Ration Gas
As if the West couldn’t get any more insane, Switzerland is now floating the idea of sending people to jail for heating their rooms above 19℃ (66℉) in the case that the country is compelled to ration gas due to the Russo-Ukrainian conflict.
The government could also impose fines on individuals who are caught violating the new set of regulations.
In an interview with Swiss newspaper Blick, Markus Sporndli, a spokesman for the Federal Department of Finance, revealed that the fines could start at 30 Swiss Francs ($31 USD) and be levied on a daily basis until the offender ceases engaging in the illegal activity.
In addition, Sporndli highlighted that the maximum fine could reach 3,000 Swiss Francs ($3108).
Companies who violate the gas quotas they’re subjected to could also face harsh punishments.
As the Daily Mail reported, per potential regulations, temperatures in gas-heated buildings can not rise above 19℃ (66℉), with water heated up to 60℃ (140℉).
