Lights Out for the Light Bulb Ban?

The Foundry  "Some politicians in Washington don’t think you’re all that bright. They believe that you can’t make wise decisions in your day-to-day life, so they have taken it upon themselves to impose regulations to protect you from yourself. And there’s no better example than Congress’ ban on the incandescent light bulb, which is up for repeal in the House today."

House to Vote on Lightbulb-Ban Repeal


"Thankfully, the House is finally making moves to repeal this - at best, ill-thought-out; at worst, you-will-go-green-and-you-will-like-it - law. On Monday, expect to see a vote on the Better Use of Lightbulbs (BULB) Act, meant to reverse the 2007 law's provision on banning incandescents."
