“The Light Bulb Freedom of Choice Act”

It is a horrific shame that we actually need an act of Congress to have light bulb freedom. I laugh when I hear somebody say “well it’s a free country”. When I was a kid it was pretty free. Not so much these days.

How many tons of mercury will now be placed into dumps when every bulb is a “green” bulb? The weirdest part of this is that if the curly, mercury filled light were the standard, it would have been banned by the EPA.

Every other time I go to Wally World I pick up a pack of 60 watt and 100 watt light bulbs.

Well there goes my fiendish plan to hoard incandescent light bulbs and sell them for $1 a piece in 2015. I would have been a MILLIONAIRE!!!!

Of course, with impending inflation, a gallon of gas will be $7 and a loaf of bread will be about the same. So, I can give solace to myself all I would have had with my MILLIONS would be about 4 months of operating expenses.
