Not to refudiate your post, I just don’t understand. All I know is flourescent light is very irritating to some of us, and now the government is telling us we MUST use them? What are we to do?

I'm hoarding them myself :>} This fad will not last long. There are legitimate uses for these bulbs beyond household lighting. What started the stupidity was ones like Walmart C.E.O. Scott forcing a market decision upon consumers in the name of so called green energy. Walmart the likely largest retail seller to consumers is on a shelf space reduction kick. Selling less bulbs at a much higher price achieves that agenda. Selling less bulbs per month means more shelf space for more Made in China crap.

Now if you look up Walamrts so called offical company press releases on the matter it was to be green friendly. In a couple of years Walmart will also push for a mandated disposable light bulb container which will come with the light at a much higher price of course.
