There is no sneaking going on. This is all happening in public. And you want a vote? A vote happened, and the result was to not make HES permanently voluntary. Your POV lost the vote. Deal with it.

Regarding tearing down homes, I doubt that is the standard solution. Energy inefficient homes can be retrofitted. Perhaps visit the Environmental Center for advice if you really are. As a car buyer a lot of information is available to you about the fuel efficiency of the vehicle. Given the much greater cost of a home (and the likely greater monthly energy cost), it only makes sense to me to give potential buyers information about the homes they are considering to spend a small or large fortune on. Its just as useful as a home inspection.
