California considers banning common light bulb


SACRAMENTO, Calif. California lawmakers are working to change a light bulb.

Assemblyman Lloyd Levine (leh-VYN') says the common light bulb is so inefficient it should be banned. The Los Angeles Democrat and others are working on legislation that would do just that.

Levine believes compact fluorescent light bulbs are so efficient that consumers should be forced to use them. He says the often spiral-shaped bulbs use a quarter of the energy of a conventional bulb. He says they'd save consumers money and keep some 13-hundred pounds of carbon dioxide from being pumped into the atmosphere by electric plants.

Levine also points out that the new bulbs are so efficient that electric utilities give them away.

The idea has annoyed some Republicans, who say people should be allowed to make their own choices about which bulbs to buy.

All these Libs, that want to tell everyone how to live, need to be packed up and sent to Cuba. There they can plan on how to overthrow Castro and set up there own little communist utopia and live happily ever after.

we have those light bulbs. and they are good. but they dont give off as much light. but no one should be forced to use them. and they cost like 10x as much per bulb. upside is they last for 5yrs. i got sick of changing light bulbs all the time so i went and bought like a doz of them and changed all of them. i still have a couple regular bulbs and they are brighter.

i think its totally foolish that they want to outlaw them. whats next are libs going to say you can only eat certain foods?

Cause United State was founded on each and every one of us being independent and able to make our own decisions. If you actually like this idea, send me your address and I'll be more than happy to send you a one way ticket to Cuba

Maybe we should just let Republicans tell us what we can and can't do with our own money from now on while they take it.
