That's really interesting. Not being connected to grid power means that your house gets condemned.
A part of me wants to believe that there's a justification for most if not all of the laws on the books. I wonder what the justification for condemning an off-grid house is. There are places where it's sufficiently expensive to bring grid power in that people will have solar, wind and generators and that's cheaper at least for any given decade. Should those houses get condemned too?
Or are you talking about in big cities where the house is already hooked up to the grid? Have you got any links? I'd be interested to read about it.

- msandford 12y agoJesus that's fucking depressing. I knew of the lady in FL but that was just for water; I didn't realize that people were getting condemned for not having what the city considers to be enough electricity. I can't believe that the hypocrisy of the government officials isn't blatantly obvious to all. Lady can't afford electricity so they kick her out of her house to sleep in her car. Disgusting.
