Skin Cancer will no longer be covered by Socialized Medicine. It’s for the planet.

Do not taunt “environmentally friendly light bulb”.

Why just this morning I heard a doc indicate that these bulbs also cause migraines and epilepsy. You’re gonna need a doc’s note to be able to have the “regular” bulbs in your home.

I hate flourescent light. I’ll shift to candelabras maybe for my morning reading. Would be kind of classy. How’s that for the environment?

I can see it now.
You’ll have to get a doctors note giving you permission to purchase the old type lightbulbs.
Then you’ll have to purchase them at the pharmacist desk where restricted items are sold.
You’ll have to sign the book so they can track you in case you’re buying too many for nefarious reasons.

What about all the existing straight-tube fluorescent bulbs in our homes and businesses now?

Wait till all the women in this country wake up to the fact that fluorescent lighting makes them look ghastly, really ghastly......including totally accentuating even minor bags under the eyes.

This is why you'll never find fluorescent lights in beauty shops, photographers' studios, theatrical dressing rooms and the like.

Say "cheese", ladies.

“environmentally friendly light bulb” providers should have
to obtain INFORMED CONSENT from those to whom they give this
mutagenic, toxic, structurally labile, irradiating devices.

This is just too beautiful. Another wonderful idea of the eco-fascists that causes more harm than good. Too bad most people will never know it because of the MSM’s continuous propogandizing for the left.

Why is it I can’t buy a mercury thermometer, but will be forced to fill my home with mercury lights? I was told the planet would melt if I had a mercury thermometer break, but I am now forced to handle mercury 100 times more for the rest of my shortened life.

It might be profitable to stock up on the bulbs while they are still dirt cheap and available (96 Cents for a 4 pack at the local dollar store). You could probably make a fortune on ebay in about 10 years...

Congress really screwed up this time.

The political carnage on this issue will be fun to watch, particularly if the Republicans have the courage to parade victims of the new lighting policies around Capitol Hill.

I call BS.

“a more intense light which can cause eruptions of existing skin problems, like eczema, “

Funny, a friend of mine has eczema and hi Dr recommended to help clear his eczema he should sit under more intense light like the sun or fluorescent sun lamps...and it’s helped!

I’ll agree about the migraines. I hadn’t heard about the other problems. Gee, thanks, enviro-wackos (including the President).

I’m sitting here thinking how amazing that so many people on this thread are upset about those in power making laws based on junk science.

I don’t seem to recall the issue, but it’s happened before and is happening in more and more states every day.

Let me sit here, light a cigarette, and think about what that issue is.

Hmmmmm.
