  1. Another overreach of the government. Total bs

  2. Gas stoves' incomplete combustion releases formaldehyde carcinogen affecting asthmatics and polluting carbon emissions. Induction cooking and 100% electric are safer, better for health and planet..

  3. Nothing says 'I appreciate my customers' like fighting for your right to subject them to CO2 poisoning rather than modernizing your equipment.

  4. ban Democrats not stoves

  5. I thought banning gas stoves was a right wing conspiracy theory. Why is this channel pushing conspiracy theories?

  6. Just ban food and restaurants instead…

  7. Thank the Democrats for this.

  8. YOOOOO ARE THEY FOR REAL???? ARENT BUILDINGS REQUIRED TO HAVE VENTALATION SYSTEMS OR AM I JUST TOO STUPID? AN RESTRAUNTS ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO HAVE A VENTALTION HOOD TO EXPELL GASES AND SMOKE, ARGUMENT INVALID, CAN WE PLEASE MOVE ON TO SOMETHING MORE IMPORTANT AND USEFUL WITH OUR TIME YOU GEASERS.

  9. If Congress was to ban gas, they would stop talking.

  10. You get what you voted for !

  11. I have a Bachelors in Culinary Arts. I never liked cooking with gas as I felt it had a negative impact on my health. I’m all for the ban!

  12. I bet you Republicans cried over the banning of whale oil too.

  13. Every restaurant chef in America is probably SOOOO against banning gas stoves.🤷🏻🤦🏻‍♂️🔥How do you think the food is cooked so quickly?

  14. 217 republicans just voted to cut society security and the VA call your House representative

  15. Pure insanity to ban gas and oil! These totalitarian idiots must be voted out!

  16. Taking away gas means burning more coal it doesn't add up. Renewables are not reliable so let's burn more coal hmmm. BTW I think coal and gas are a gift from God.

  17. What are we even talking about the gas stove ban is Republican conspiracy theory I was told

  18. Yep. Gas stoves are far superior, relative to gastronomy, but the world is dying. We are all going to have to make some painful changes if we want there to be a world for our children and grandchildren. We all need to grow the F up.

  19. The main issue is human overpopulation, not gas stoves.

  20. Good luck cooking your food when there is a power outage!!! 🤣

  21. This is idiotic.
    We have massive amounts of pollution from so many industries, seriously dangerous levels of pollution from oil drilling and production, coal mining, chemical, plastic production, clothing manufacturing and they decide to pick gas stoves to go after?

  22. Maybe make exceptions for restaurants, but really I don’t care that much myself. Don’t really want my kids getting asthma. So maybe induction nudges out gas for me.

  23. The change in the quality of the food doesn't matter but gas stoves are nice to have when there's a blackout

  24. Induction cooking is great, but I would guess it's not simple to replace everyone's stoves with them so quickly.
