Maybe they should stop trying and let the consumers decide.

Everything the government touches turns to shit.
Absolutely every single thing. Every time.

The feral government is merely implementing Cloward-Piven.
Overwhelm the system.
Bring it to it's knees and shoot it in the head, then say "See! See! We told you freedom and capitalism don't work!"

Cleaning up _4_ broken ones in an approximate 3 month time span gave me mild mercury poisoning last year.
[a blood level of “49” which is 10X the “safe amount”]
It was a *very* physically unpleasant 6 months until my levels came back down.
Think about that for a while.
Imagine how *little* it would take to poison a much smaller _child_.
Thanks nanny state hypocrites!

Bush the veto pussy.
Jerk wouldn’t veto anything. How many in EIGHT STINKING YEARS?
We’ve been saddled with so much socialist crap because the [insert a vulgar noun here] wouldn’t veto anything and he wouldn’t lead the party, except when he wanted amnesty for illegals.
IMO the only good thing about W was that he wasn’t Algore.

“It makes no sense.”
The definitive description of interfering government.

I have decided long ago, that whenever the Feds don't make sense, some on has greased their palms.
Follow the money, and I bet it makes perfect sense for someones bottom line - just not for policy.
We have very little logic behind policy anymore - just lobby money, and whatever policy they want at the moment.

At least they broke it outside where the PPM is nearly neglible.
I had one *explode* in the light socket in the laundry room, showering its happy little payload into my freshly washed basket of clothes.
Not knowing any better, I simply rewashed them and put them in the drier, thus spreading the mercury vapor and dust *everywhere*.
Brilliant of me, wasn’t it?
[there were no “haz-mat cleanup instructions” on the box]

A couple of years ago when the CFLs first started coming out, a buddy of mine opined over a bunch of beers that someday the capital and white house would have to be closed when a bunch of people would break a bunch of CFL bulbs as a protest, which would then be labeled as terrorist attacks, and then cause martial law to be declared.
Yes, we were drunk at the time, but I think I can see this happening these days.

I have to agree with you. Bush was a real letdown.

Wouldn’t it be something if pelosi, reid, obama and boner all got some mercury bulbs mailed to them? And they weren’t packed correctly? No padding or styrofoam peanuts to stop them from breaking during shipment? You know, as a protest? Would that be against the law? mmmm?

"We're removing mercury from outside the home while adding it inside," he said. "It makes no sense." I'm shocked. /s
Government is not sense or reason. It is force.
