If it's really that important to you, you could buy an electric burner or use other types of electric cooking devices.
Also, the poster is correct that it's not the function of government to tell people what type of kitchen appliances they can use in their own home. We would typically consider that governmental overreach. It's telling that society is becoming so accepting of being told by the government what they can and cannot do in so many areas of life.
- oblio 3y agoLOL, are you for real? Have you seen construction codes? This stuff happens all over the world and in places with solid democracies. Turns out safety and efficiency need to be mandated because the free market will kill people with 0 remorse and the average person has ~0 market power. Progress is many people working together, through ever more complex communal initiatives such as corporations, NGOs and yes, government.
