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).
