I resent that. ... So long as I make enough money to support my family I’m happy.

Your heavy use of the I pronoun is consistent with a high level of vanity. Vanity always occurs with envy. They are related mental processes. Leftism is the politics of resentment and you have the disease. If you are truly happy you shouldn't concern yourself with dictating how your neighbors behave. You are likely not a happy person and feel you can never be fully happy until destroy all the objects that challenge your self-concept of unrecognized greatness. The head shrink profession makes their living reattaching oversized egos to reality and you would benefit from their feedback, and would probably greatly enjoy the all the attention they will give you.

That said I will agree with you that motion sensor lighting should be used more often. But it should not be mandated. The laws of supply and demand will do their work. If many people want to light up their nice big house, green lawn, SUV, fireplace, and all the things you resent, they should enjoy the freedom to do so and not have you dictating their lifestyle to assuage your feelings of resentment.

Vane about what? I have nothing to boast about. Envious of whom? I’ve nothing about which to feel envious. And what do you know about my political opinions? Just because I am concerned about the environment, does that make me a raving Marxist or tree-hugger? I have seen what the problems are and I just want to convince people of the solution. If you are not to blind, the evidence it out there for all to see.
