How many light bulbs does it take to change a government?

So you’re proposing that the villagers carry lightbulbs with their pitchforks instead of torches, then?

Toastrider posted this yesterday, and he is right according to the research that I’ve done.

If you run the numbers, whatever energy savings you get from using CFLs is completely devoured by the energy and resources needed to manufacture and dispose of them.

Again: CFLs HAVE MERCURY IN THEM. MERCURY IS BAD FOR YOU, DIPSHITS.

You break an incandescent, you’ve got some bits of glass and metal to sweep up. Annoying but not a serious problem.

Break a CFL and it’s instant Hazmat problem.

So you would have us use something that is more detrimental  to humans and the environment not to mention more expensive, just to please your progressive slave masters?

So shut up NotTheDickNixon, oh and Obummer says to eat your peas.

Corporate America knows what is best…for profits, but not what is best for us.

Yep.  Generous Electric was a major lobbyist for the incandescent ban.  Most incandescents are mede abroad, and they are trying to get back into the game.

Personally, I use both, each in its best application.

I just dispose of them by throwing them out the car window at night.  Preferably in front of the elementary school.

You have it exactly ass backwards.

From FDR’s on Treasury Secretary:

The words are those of none other than Henry Morgenthau Jr. — close friend, lunch companion, loyal secretary of the Treasury to President Franklin D. Roosevelt — and key architect of FDR’s New Deal.

The date: May 9, 1939. The setting: Morgenthau’s appearance in Washington before less influential Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee.
Morgenthau made this “startling confession,” as historian Burton W. Folsom Jr. calls it, during the seventh year of FDR’s New Deal programs to combat the rampant unemployment of the Great Depression.
“In these words, Morgenthau summarized a decade of disaster, especially during the years Roosevelt was in power. Indeed average unemployment for the whole year in 1939 would be higher than that in 1931, the year before Roosevelt captured the presidency from Herbert Hoover,” Folsom writes in his new book, “New Deal or Raw Deal?: How FDR’s Economic Legacy Has Damaged America.”

Indeed, with those words, Morgenthau confessed what so many keepers of FDR’s flame won’t admit today: The New Deal was failed public policy. Massive spending on public works programs didn’t erase historic unemployment. It didn’t produce a recovery.

Yes, why do you bother with this site?  All you manage to do is spout Marxist drivel and disrupt, are you trying to convince us or yourself?

So shut up and eat your peas!!!
