That wouldnt work. Not even close.

The hoarding of wealth isn’t an issue here. The wealth they have is stocks in companies, mansions, boats, jewelry, nice cars, ect. None of those things contribute to the problem of food distribution. If we killed every billionaire and took their assets none of it would help in the fight for world hunger.

Also we do lack the means of cheap distribution right now. Currently we would need to hire a ton more drivers, set up a ton more warehouses, more shipping boats, and fund the operations. Could it be done, maybe, but not in the current state.

I do agree it’s an unwilling adventure we don’t want to take, that’s why it hasn’t happened yet.

I agree if we expand the distribution network we can realistically feed everyone. But in its current state it wouldn’t be realistic. Not sure we should be relying on Walmart and Amazon to solve works hunger though.

I also agree with that.

We didn’t have a scarcity problem, or a billionaire problem, we have a distribution problem. All the supplies in the world mean nothing if we can’t distribute the goods and service to everyone. You could snap your fingers and make unlimited food in front of you, but starvation would still be happening.

Because amps is the results of volts and resistance. It’s the volts that kill you, amps are just the result.

“It’s not the volts that kill you, it’s the amps.” Has got to be my most hated slogan

You need something line this to prevent backfeeding. The plug and plays can’t do this without a meter device.

Modern approved good quality ones with the property inverter and installed correctly yes they are not a problem.

The one someone buys on Amazon for cheap and install himself with no knowledge on how to install them on an older US home with 15 A breakers… At least a new home will have a lot to built on after the fire.

It is, and that is why most us utilities ban the use of these.

Germany uses 230v systems, while most homes in the US uses 120v. Big difference in the average amperage though the wires, by double. A 400w solid solar plug and play there only adds 1.3A to the system we’re that would add 3.3a to ours. And on common 15A outlets that’s a lot added. If you have a 1800watt microwave or window AC system on that same circuit it will draw over the rated amps on the circuit. In Europe it wouldn’t.

I have. The plug in play systems are incredibly dangerous for both the home and the grid is not installed correctly. The biggest thing is killing linemen from the backfeed, putting dirty power on the grid, or catching your house on fire.

The most common way people add these is on an existing circuit, which can overload the wires downstream to a high load device causing a fire. They should only be installed into a dedicated circuit for this reason, and it’s your are at that point you might as well install an acually full solar system.

These small ones that i would consider safe for in use circuits would be like 200watt systems, and at that point you are only saving $30/month at Best. It’s not worth the hassle.

As far as carbon footprint, the battery systems are the biggest contributor, and they are lucky to last 5 years on cheap systems. The panel itself will be carbon friendly faster a few years so there is no knocking that part.

“it makes me feel good” is the only reason to do this. Then don’t research how panels are made or the true carbon offset times.

All this to potentially start a fire. Sounds like a win.

Who else saw it?
